The children are encouraged to be themselves and try new things, and the staff are always supportive. We love the opportunity for our children to participate in activities like swimming and sports, and the facilities are top-notch!

"Mixed Experience"

We've had a mixed experience at Hamworthy Park Junior School. Some of the teachers have been excellent, but others have been less so. The facilities are great, but we've had some issues with communication between teachers and parents. Overall, it's been a good school, but we're not sure if we'll return next year.
