## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A Wonderful School Community: I've been extremely happy with Parker's Church of England Primary Academy. They have a wonderful Breakfast Club that my child loves and the school's values of Friendship, Respect and Responsibility are truly embedded in the daily life of the school. My child is thriving and making great friends. I would highly recommend this school! *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — A Great School for My Child: I'm so impressed with the school's efforts to keep parents informed and involved. The STAY & PLAY sessions on Wednesdays have been a lifesaver for me and my child loves the Termly magazine that celebrates their achievements. The staff are friendly and supportive, and my child is thriving academically and socially. I couldn't ask for a better school! *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Great School with Some Room for Improvement: I've been very pleased with Parker's Church of England Primary Academy overall. The school's Breakfast Club is excellent and the Termly magazine is a great way to stay informed about my child's progress. However, I feel that the school's values could be more consistently applied in some areas, particularly in terms of encouraging more independent learning and problem-solving. My child is doing well, but I think the school could do a bit more to challenge them. *(Jan 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Mixed Experience: I have mixed feelings about Parker's Church of England Primary Academy. The school's facilities are excellent and the staff are generally very supportive. However, I felt that communication could be improved and there were some issues with the school's SEN provision. My child made some great friends and achieved well, but I wouldn't say it's my absolute favourite school. Perhaps with some tweaks to their SEN support, it could be a 5-star school. *(Mar 2020)*
