I can honestly say, it was the best decision I ever made to send them both to this school. Not only is the academic provision excellent, but the sport, drama and other extra curricular activities that they offer is really well rounded. This has resulted in them both being confident and very happy children, which I think is crucial for the start of their academic career. On top of this, The Mead has a great PTA who organise wonderful events that bring everyone together outside of the classroom, which in turn generates a feeling of community.

reviews: [{"relativePublishTimeDescription":"2 years ago","rating":5,"text":{"text":"My daughter is about to go into year 6 and my son into year 4, and they have both been at The Mead since reception. I can honestly say, it was the best decision I ever made to send them both to this school. Not only is the academic provision excellent, but the sport, drama and other extra curricular activities that they offer is really well rounded. This has resulted in them both being confident and very happy children, which I think is crucial for the start of their academic career. On top of this, The Mead has a great PTA who organise wonderful events that bring everyone together outside of the classroom, which in turn generates a feeling of community. I have no hesitation in recommending this school to anyone who asks.","languageCode":"en"},"originalText":{"text":"My daughter is about to go into year 6 and my son into year 4, and they have both been at The Mead since reception.
