“Since starting school in September we feel that our daughter has developed most notably with her reading and writing skills. This is undoubtedly down to your (Mrs Philpott) teaching skills and efforts with her and her classmates. She enjoys school so much and only ever talks positively about her day at school. We couldn’t be happier with her progress!”

“I am so pleased how my little girl has developed in the short time she has been in reception and I don’t doubt this is all because of Mrs Philpott and Mrs Wakeman. Her knowledge of numbers and letters has greatly improved. She came home teaching me about digraphs the other day, I was amazed at what she has learnt. She loves to go in every day and comes home with a smile”.

“Just a very quick email to say that we’ve been really impressed with the lessons and resources that have been planned for Oak class this week. Both Mrs Lalli & Miss Harper have put in a lot of thought into making interesting lessons for the children”.
