"Not a great school diabolical school neglects children"

This school is one of the worst school I have ever come across if your children have additional needs don't bother sending children they can not meet there needs they don't support the sen children what so ever I would never recommend the staff our ride they go behind your backs you have issues trying to talk to them and they will not listen and accommodate you or your children that struggles with everyday school activities will not accommodate echep plans senco teachers are a joke there attitudes are a joke will not 100% not recommend for a first school for any children stay clear

"Excellent School and Staff!"

We've been at Sambourne for 3 years now and couldn't be happier! The facilities are amazing, especially the new library and outdoor classroom. The staff are so supportive and caring, always going the extra mile to help our children.

"A Great Place to Learn"

My children attended Sambourne a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed their time there. The school's values of 'Learn to Love - Love to Learn' really shine through in the way the staff teach and care for the children. The breakfast club and after-school activities were also a big hit with our family.

"Room for Improvement"

We've been a bit disappointed with the school's communication with parents, but the teachers are lovely and our child has settled in well. The facilities are nice, but the lunch menu could be more varied and healthy. Overall, we're still giving it a chance and hoping things will improve.
