"Our children love coming here!"

We moved to the area last year and were so happy to find Polehampton. The staff are friendly and supportive. Our children have settled in quickly and enjoy the Forest School program. They're learning so much and making great friends.

"Good school, but some issues to iron out"

My child has been attending Polehampton for a year now and we've had mixed experiences. The staff are generally friendly, but sometimes communication has been a problem. We've also had some issues with the school's policies on attendance and punctuality. That being said, my child has made some great friends and enjoys the arts program.

"Excellent school - but watch for the uniform rules!"

I have two children who attended Polehampton and I was really impressed with the staff and facilities. They loved the swimming pool and the trips they went on. However, the uniform rules can be a bit strict, but that's a minor quibble. Overall, we were happy with our experience at Polehampton.
