"Great school with great staff"

We were really impressed with The Mead Community Primary School from the moment we visited. The staff are friendly and approachable, and the facilities are great. Our child is thriving and loves attending school. One thing that would be great is more opportunities for outdoor learning.

"Excellent education and values"

I have two children who attended The Mead Community Primary School and I couldn't be happier with the education they received. The values of the school really resonated with me and my partner, and the staff were always supportive. My children went on to do well in secondary school and have benefited from their time at The Mead.
