"A wonderful school that truly cares about its children"

We've been delighted with the way our son has settled into Dymchurch Primary. The staff are always approachable and willing to listen, and the school's values of respect, empathy and kindness are really evident in everything they do. Our son loves learning and is thriving in the supportive and inclusive environment.

"Our child is thriving at Dymchurch Primary"

We've been so impressed with the school since our daughter started in Reception. The staff are kind and supportive, and the facilities are excellent - our child loves the playground and the arts room. The values-led environment is really important to us, and we feel confident that Dymchurch Primary is providing our child with a solid foundation for the future.

"A great school with a lovely community"

We moved away from Dymchurch last year, but our son still speaks highly of his time at the school. He loved the Breakfast Club and the after-school activities, and we were impressed with the way the school supported his interests and learning style. While there were a few teething problems with the new curriculum, we felt that the school did a great job of communicating with us and keeping us informed.
