"A Home away from Home!"

We've been at Kirk Smeaton for a year now and I'm so impressed by the school's values. The children are encouraged to be kind, safe, and independent, and it's wonderful to see them grow into confident learners. Staff are always approachable and my child loves attending the after-school clubs. Five stars isn't enough!

"Shining Bright!"

What can I say? Kirk Smeaton is an absolute gem. From the warm welcome we received on our first visit to the dedication of the teachers and staff, it's been a joy to watch our child grow. The school's emphasis on SHINE values has been a game-changer for our little one's confidence and kindness. Can't recommend enough!

"Mixed Feelings"

We moved out of the area, but my child still talks fondly of their time at Kirk Smeaton. The teachers are kind and genuinely care about the children's well-being. However, I do wish the school would communicate more regularly with parents about upcoming events and milestones. It feels a bit hit-or-miss sometimes. That being said, our child thrived in the SHINE-focused environment and made some wonderful friends.

"A Great Find!"

We moved to the area and were looking for a school that would feel like a home away from home. Kirk Smeaton has definitely delivered! The staff are friendly, the facilities are modern, and the curriculum is engaging. My child loves the EYFS classes and the after-school activities. The only thing that keeps me from giving it 5 stars is the occasional lack of communication about upcoming events.
