"Excellent School with a Family Feel"

We've been very impressed with the progress our children have made at Winterhill School. The teachers are all very approachable and the sense of community is fantastic - our children love attending the school clubs and events. We couldn't ask for a better education for our children.

"A Great All-Rounder"

We moved to Rotherham a year ago and were initially concerned about finding a school that would meet our child's needs. Winterhill School has exceeded our expectations in every way - the curriculum is engaging, the facilities are excellent and the staff are all very supportive. We feel very lucky to have found such a great school.
