The Growth Mindset approach has been a game-changer, and we've seen a significant improvement in their confidence and attitude towards learning. The staff are friendly and approachable, and the school's commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of the children is top-notch. *(Feb 2023)* - **5/5** — Love this school!: I have one child who has been at Porters Grange since nursery and the other in Year 6. I'm thoroughly impressed with the facilities, especially the playground and the emphasis on outdoor learning. The teachers are caring, patient, and highly qualified. I've seen my kids flourish and develop a love for learning. I couldn't recommend this school more! *(Sep 2022)* - **4/5** — Mixed feelings about our experience: We had our child at Porters Grange for a few years, and while we appreciated the school's emphasis on creativity and outdoor learning, we felt that the academics could have been stronger. The teachers were generally good, but we encountered a few issues with communication and organisation. Overall, it was an okay experience, but we wouldn't necessarily recommend it to others. *(Oct 2021)* ## Other schools in Southend-on-Sea - [Greenways Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/southend-on-sea/greenways-primary-school-17793) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Hinguar Community Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/southend-on-sea/hinguar-community-primary-school-17788) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Bournes Green Infant School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/southend-on-sea/bournes-green-infant-school-17794) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Thorpedene Primary School & Nursery](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/southend-on-sea/thorpedene-primary-school-nursery-17791) — 4.7/5 (4 reviews) - [Friars Primary School and Nursery](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/southend-on-sea/friars-primary-school-and-nursery-17789) — 4.6/5 (4 reviews) - [Southend High School for Girls](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/southend-on-sea/southend-high-school-for-girls-12165) — 4.5/5 (4 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
