"Amazing school and community!"

We've been at Masham for 3 years now and can't speak highly enough of the school and the community. The values of kindness, forgiveness, and acceptance are truly lived by the staff and children. Our child has thrived and made lifelong friends.

"Lovely school, but some areas for improvement"

We've been really happy with the school overall, but feel that the playground equipment could do with being updated. Our child loves their teachers and the other children, but we've noticed that the school meals could be more varied and healthy. Still, we'd definitely recommend Masham.

"Excellent education and care"

We sent our child to Masham for their entire primary education and were consistently impressed with the level of care and support they received. The PE and Sport Premium program really helped develop their sporting skills and confidence. We're so grateful for the experience.
