"Our Son loves Nursling Primary!"

We moved to Southampton a year ago, and were so nervous about our son settling into a new school. From the very start, the staff at Nursling Primary have been incredibly warm and welcoming. Our son has thrived in the Oak Class and we love the values of love, hope and courage that are at the heart of the school. We couldn't be happier!

"Our daughter loves her time at Nursling Primary!"

We've been so impressed with the Willow Class and their approach to learning. Our daughter is always excited to tell us about her day and the activities she's done. We love the emphasis on creativity and imagination, and the way the staff encourage the children to be their best selves. We feel so lucky to have found a school that aligns with our values.

"Great School, but a Few Issues"

We have very fond memories of our daughter's time at Nursling Primary, where she was in the Sycamore Class. The school's focus on community and Christian values really resonated with us. However, we did find that communication with the school could sometimes be a bit patchy, and we had a few issues with the breakfast club. Overall, we're grateful for the education and experiences our daughter had at Nursling Primary.
