Gravel Hill Primary School

A very good school in the locality with pupils from diverse backgrounds. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Even temporary agency workers claim that they are treated on par with regular staff and feel valued to the point many try to join the school team rather than being part of the supply. Pupils come to school happy, feel safe and know how their school can help them do better both academics and extra curricular activities. Their SEN work is outstanding and liaison with external professionals are meticulously done. Their recent stay and play sessions have been very popular with many families attending on a regular basis. Senior leadership team is emphatic and listen to staff and ensure their work life balance is always a priority. Staff camaraderie is surprisingly very good and work as a cohesive and well knit team. Parents are very supportive of the school and are generally very satisfied.

Bad school! My child got bullied repeatedly and nothing was done about it! One day my child came home and said that a teacher was yelling at people for talking during assembly and he made a young girl cry! I thought ther was no shouting policy!

The most toxic environment I ever had the misfortune to work in. Appalling management, children forced to walk around with their arms behind their backs and a culture of bullying. This school broke so many great young teachers. The turnover of staff there tells it's own story.
