- **5/5** — Our Child Loves Going to Broomhaugh First School: Our child has been at Broomhaugh First School for two years now, and we're so happy with the progress they've made. The school's Forest School program is one of the best things about it - our child loves exploring the outdoors and learning about nature. The teachers are all so supportive and kind, and the values the school teaches align perfectly with our own. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful school for our child! *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — A Great Little School with a Big Heart: We're so impressed with Broomhaugh First School - the staff are all so friendly and welcoming, and the school's facilities are top-notch. Our child loves playing in the outdoor space and attending Forest School sessions. We also appreciate the school's emphasis on Christian values and kindness - it's wonderful to see our child learning about empathy and compassion. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Decent School, but Could Improve in Some Areas: We sent our child to Broomhaugh First School for a few years, and while it was a decent school, we did feel that they could improve in a few areas. The teachers were generally good, but sometimes the curriculum felt a bit rushed. We also didn't love the way they handled some of the classroom behavior issues. That being said, the school does have some lovely facilities and a great sense of community. *(Jun 2021)*
