About Warwick Bridge Primary School

If you're researching Warwick Bridge Primary School, the parent feedback is a good place to start. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering September 2024 to September 2025, a striking 91% of the 65 respondents said they would recommend the school. That's a very strong vote of confidence. The detail backs it up: every single parent agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy and feels safe, with 75% strongly agreeing on safety. There's also a clear sense that the school communicates well — 66% strongly agreed they're made aware of what their child will learn, and 97% agreed or strongly agreed they're kept informed about progress. The school is clearly popular, too.
