Every child deserves the best possible start in life and support to fulfil their potential. A child’s experience in the early years has a major impact in their future life chances. A secure, safe and happy childhood is important in its’ own right, and it provides the foundation for children to make the most of their abilities and talents as they grow up.

Ofsted Report on Reigate Parish Church School, 2008 Reigate Parish is an outstanding school. From within all of the exceptional aspects of the school, perhaps the one that shines out most is the high level of enjoyment of all pupils.

Ofsted Report on the Foundation Stage, 2008 Careful planning gives the children a real sense of determining their own way forward, and guarantees their full involvement in all activities. Adults have high expectations, provide very clear routines and enable children to build strong, positive relationships.
