"A Welcoming Community"

We've been at Kemsley Primary for a few years now, and we've had a very positive experience. The school's emphasis on kindness, empathy, and self-awareness has been invaluable for our child. The staff are friendly and approachable, and the school's commitment to anti-bullying initiatives gives us peace of mind.

"Room for Improvement"

We moved to a new area and had to find a new school for our child. While Kemsley Primary has its strengths, we found the communication between teachers and parents to be a bit lacking at times. We also felt that the school's approach to special needs support could be more comprehensive. That being said, our child did make some good friends and had some positive experiences, which is why I'm giving them three stars.
