What Our Parents Say

The families of WPS are highly valued here. For example, the PTCA help us to organise family events such as the Summer Fete and Winter Wonderland. They also helped us raise money for our playground and the outdoor EYFS area. We deeply appreciate the help our of parents and carers who take time to come to the school and keep the children safe. For example, volunteers for school trips, those who come in for workshops and who teach the children on the occasional special days that take place throughout the year such as Yom Kippur. The children and staff are extremely thankful to have the support of our families and friends. Below are comments from these families expressing why they think Whitehall Park is special to them.

β€œIt is particularly the community spirit supported by parent involvement that makes the school special. The school offers a varied curriculum with educational visitors and workshops and a diverse offer of extra-curricular activities. They are able to grasp the kids’ attention and keep them fully engaged with their amazing themes and topics. We love this school and can only thoroughly recommend it.”

β€œA really exciting and imaginative approach to teaching that is very inspiring for all the children that are at the school.”

β€œFocus on each child as an individual and the ability for them to work to their level.”

β€œI think what makes WPS unique are the core school values of Respect, Independence, Innovation, Compassion, Resilience and Aspiration. As a parent, these are the values I find important and knowing my children are thinking, learning and encouraged to have these vales makes me very happy. Thank you WPS.”

β€œWhitehall Park School really nurture every child. The teachers find a way to really bring the best out in all the children. The teachers can spot each child’s strengths and weaknesses and work with the children to ensure they are happy and confident. The school and all the teachers are truly amazing.”

β€œI love how excited my children are about everything they are learning. The teachers always make lessons interesting and creative. I feel like my children are treated as individuals and made to feel like they are a unique part of the Whitehall Park family. Thank you.”

β€œWPS is so special because the team will never give up, always trying to improve what they are doing for the children. They are instilling amazing values and encouraging the children to be independent and responsible, while always enjoying their learning, the result is confident and caring kids!”

β€œMy child says β€œIt’s a very fun school”. I agree. She is always happy, the staff are always happy and always friendly. The school is always very clean, neat and tidy. It’s a school I feel safe and comfortable having my child go to.”

β€œMy son can’t wait to get into school every day and races to do his home learning on a Friday night. Thank you for all that you do.”

β€œI think what makes the school special is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. The motivated attitude and open minded staff who go the extra mile to make learning fun and interesting. The high standard of behaviour expected is good and rewards and badges make a big difference.”

β€œThe school is special because it has an inspirational head teacher, fantastic dedicated teams and a wonderful school.”

β€œI think the pupils are involved in every big decision and by doing that they all feel very proud of their school. This also makes them more responsible and caring and not only with the school, but everything in their life.”

β€œThe after school clubs have activities, hobbies and a chance to learn new skills rather than it just being a place to fill their time. Children learn morals, respect and are praised for their development.”

β€œI love that Whitehall Park teaches the children to be independent. I’m also happy there is a uniform as the children look so smart.”
