Why our parents picked Courtney…
We felt at home straight away when visiting Courtney, the teachers were friendly and knowledgeable and our boys felt immediately comfortable exploring the well-stocked classrooms. We were impressed by how much outdoor space there is for such a small school - our boys happily ran around the grounds when we first visited, and haven’t stopped doing so since! We felt that Courtney was the perfect combination of a close-knit family environment yet also well managed, with good academic success to date and robust plans in place for even more impressive attainment in the future.

As a parent, for me it's that Courtney is a small, friendly school with a real sense of community. There's definitely a 'Courtney family' feel; everyone is approachable, lots of opportunities for parent involvement (wow events, pta fundraisers etc). Standards of behaviour are very high, and on the rare occasions that there have been issues they've been dealt with quickly and efficiently. On top of that the excellent facilities: the interior is bright, engaging and welcoming, the library is fabulous, and likewise the outdoor play areas are varied and fun.

I chose Courtney because it is a small school and I wanted to feel a part of a community. At the time my daughter was waiting for diagnosis re a potential learning disability. We were fortunate enough to receive this with focused care and prompt support being offered.
