## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Fantastic school!: We've had our son at Marus Bridge for 3 years now and have been consistently impressed with the care and education he receives. The teachers are passionate and dedicated, and the facilities are excellent - our child loves the outdoor area and the Bridge Builders programme has been a highlight. Highly recommend! *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good school, could improve: We've had mixed experiences at Marus Bridge. Our child has loved the science lessons and the Wonderdome trips have been a highlight. However, we've sometimes struggled with communication from the teachers and feel that the school could do more to keep parents informed. Overall, we're happy with the education our child is receiving, but feel there's room for improvement. *(Mar 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent school!: We're absolutely thrilled with Marus Bridge Primary School! Our child has thrived in the Early Years setting and the phonics programme has been a game-changer for their reading. The teachers are kind, patient and supportive, and the school's focus on kindness and respect has really rubbed off on our child. We feel so lucky to have found a school that truly cares about its pupils. *(Jan 2022)*
- **5/5** — Lovely community: We moved to the area a few years ago and our daughter started at Marus Bridge. We were initially hesitant but soon fell in love with the warm and welcoming community. The school's values of 'Learn, Enjoy and Achieve' really shone through in our child's development. The only reason we moved away was for a job opportunity, but we'll always look back on our time at Marus Bridge with fond memories. *(Jun 2021)*
