## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Outstanding School!: I'm so impressed with South Molton Community Primary School! The staff are friendly and approachable, the facilities are excellent (especially the outdoor learning areas!) and the values they're teaching our children are top-notch. We've been here for a year now and I couldn't recommend it more. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Love the Outdoor Learning!: Our son has been at South Molton Community Primary for 6 years and we've been consistently impressed with the school. The outdoor learning is a highlight - he's loved the forest school sessions and the Ultimate Adventure Award has encouraged him to be more confident and try new things. The staff are supportive and the school feels like a community. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Feelings: We had a good experience at South Molton Community Primary while our child was there (from Year 1 to Year 4). The school has a lot to offer, with a great outdoor learning program and a committed staff. However, I felt that the school could do more to engage with parents - we sometimes felt a bit left out of events and activities. Overall, it's a good school, but not perfect. *(Dec 2021)*
