"Outstanding Education and Care"

Churchstanton Primary School has exceeded our expectations in every way. The Squirrel Class is an amazing team, pushing my child to be their best self and developing essential life skills. We're also impressed by the school's commitment to British values, E-Safety, and SEND support. My child feels happy and supported, and we feel confident in the school's leadership.

"Wonderful School with Exceptional Staff"

I'm so grateful that my son is part of the Hedgehog Class at Churchstanton Primary School. The teachers and teaching assistants are always so supportive and enthusiastic, creating a nurturing environment that encourages my child to learn and grow. The school's focus on outdoor learning and phonics program has been a game-changer for my son's reading skills.

"Good School with Room for Improvement"

I have mixed feelings about our experience at Churchstanton Primary School. My child attended the school for a few years and had some wonderful teachers, particularly in the Hedgehog Class. However, we felt that the school could have done more to support our child's individual needs and provide additional resources for pupils with special educational requirements. Overall, it's a good school, but could benefit from some tweaks in certain areas.
