Here are some comments about our school from Parents / Carers and Pupil:

There is something for everyone...Maths, Music, PE.  Children are happy and there is a lovely atmosphere wherever you go.  Staff treat children like their own.  What more could you ask? (NP - Parent)

Dear Teacher, I've loved being in your class and I loved everything we've done.  I will miss you. (KM - Pupil)

After watching my grandchildren thrive since attending Southmead Primary School  I consider it a school of excellence!   Expectations are high and children respond accordingly and achieve the highest possible standards in all areas.  They love the challenge. Our grandchildren have responded so well to the high expectations set by the school . They have grown and thrived in a nurturing environment to set themselves high standards! The children are achieving high standards whilst enjoying the challenges along the way. (BS and GS - Grandparents)

I am happy about my report because I was given a '1' for every category.  I am going to improve my maths and I'm working on my handwriting right now.  When I am in year six I am going to try to get better in every category.  Ever since year five, I started trying to be good at everything, like Hermione from Harry Potter.  (LS - Pupil)

We are really happy with Southmead Primary school, our daughter is thriving and enjoys her days here. A great school ran by great people. (EN and MN - Parents)

Southmead is a vibrant and happy school, with a good sense of community. The teachers are professional, caring and always helpful. My girls enjoy going in every day and love all the wonderful staff from the helpful office team to the dedicated teaching assistants. (ME - Parent)

My daughter has had a brilliant year.  She has loved being in the class.  We are really pleased to see her lovely report and how well she has done.  SM - Parent)

It is really nice to see my daughter's hard work and effort is being acknowledged as she has many hurdles to constantly contend with.  We are very proud of her. (LS - Parent)

Mr Plumb, As ever, thank you for your support ... particularly because of how well our son has done and is doing; curricular and extra-curricular at Southmead. I have already noticed a step change as he embarks into the next year, particularly with his application and progress within the curriculum. You and your staff have been excellent across the board, working with both the children and primary carers to ensure that the children’s academic career is enjoyable and broad yet stimulating and challenging. Thank you. Part of my decision regarding my job was to ensure another year at Southmead for our son. (CL - Parent)
