"Some Positives and Areas for Improvement"

We have been generally happy with Birley Primary and our son loves his teacher. However, we have experienced some issues with communication from the school and we feel that they could do more to support children with additional needs.

"Exceptional Education and Care"

We have been blown away by the warmth and dedication of the staff at Birley Primary. Our daughter has thrived in the nursery and now in Year 4, she loves coming to school and can't wait to learn. The facilities are great and the breakfast and after-school clubs have been a lifesaver for us.

"Great Experience for Our Daughter"

We had a fantastic experience at Birley Primary with our daughter who attended from nursery to Year 2. The school's values of Lead, Empower, Achieve and Drive really resonated with us and we felt that the staff were committed to helping our daughter reach her full potential.
