"Best School in Somerset"

We've been at Upton Noble for 5 years now and I'm so grateful for the experience my children have had here. The facilities are amazing - the outdoor pool is a real bonus! But it's the values and ethos of the school that really shine through. The teachers are passionate and caring, and the children are encouraged to be their best selves.

"A real community"

We moved to the area a few years ago and our children started at Upton Noble. We were blown away by the warmth and welcome we received. The school is a real community, with a strong sense of belonging. The children thrived here and we have nothing but praise for the staff and facilities.

"Some minor concerns"

We've been at Upton Noble for a year now and overall we're happy. The facilities are great and the staff are friendly. However, we've noticed that the school can be a bit disorganised at times. We've had to chase up missing homework and there's been some confusion over communication. Still, we love the values and ethos of the school and are hopeful that these issues will be ironed out.
