iWritten by WhatSchool from official school data (Get Information about Schools, DfE and Ofsted)."Reed has an amazing team of staff that I truly believe support each and every one of its pupils. Every child in the morning has a huge smile and is eager for the day ahead. We only wish the experience didn't need to end at year 4!" "We have thoroughly enjoyed being part of Reed First School for several years now.
There is an all-encompassing home-from-home atmosphere with traditional values and warm friendly teachers. It truly is a wonderful first school in a picture-perfect village setting and we highly recommend it." "Reed First School creates a safe, secure and happy learning environment.
It makes a big difference when your child is happy to go to school and comes home and tells you what they have learnt." "The level of education received at this school is unparalleled and far superior to any other primary school in the area."
