My child has been at Elmswell for 4 years now, and it's been an absolute delight. The teachers are supportive, the facilities are excellent, and the emphasis on community and respect is wonderful. My child has grown into a confident and kind individual, and I attribute this to the nurturing environment at Elmswell.

"A great choice for our family"

We chose Elmswell for its emphasis on respect, kindness, and community, and we've been pleased with our decision. The school's facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the teachers are enthusiastic and supportive. While there have been some minor issues with communication, we've been generally happy with the school's approach and our child's progress.

"Exceptional school - we feel so lucky!"

We moved to the area and were initially concerned about choosing a new school. However, from the first day, we knew Elmswell was the right choice. The staff are friendly and approachable, the curriculum is engaging, and the focus on safeguarding and well-being is reassuring. Our child is happy and thriving, and we couldn't be more grateful.

"Good but not perfect"

My child attended Elmswell several years ago, and while we had a positive experience, there were some aspects that didn't quite meet our expectations. The school's commitment to community and values is admirable, but we felt that the curriculum could be more challenging for more able children. Nevertheless, our child developed well and made some wonderful friends, so we're grateful for our time at Elmswell.
