Life at Crook Log School
- “Crook Log is a wonderful school with wonderful members of staff. My child is ready to leave year 6 as a confident, educated, kind boy who has been given the tools and confidence ready for his next chapter of secondary school. My daughter will be starting in Reception in September and she is very excited. I know she will have a fabulous experience of school just like her older brother. Thank you to everyone at Crook Log school you really are super heroes without capes!”
Year 6 Parent - “My oldest child has been at Crook Log for 3 years now and I think its a lovely school. The teachers are all very nice, they do lots for the children, there's a lovely PTA who also do so much for the school. I feel like all the teachers are passionate about their job and care about the children.”
- 'I would like to pass on my thanks and congratulations to all of the year 6 children. Everyone single child we spoke to this morning at the coffee morning, and there were a lot, was cheerful, happy and polite. I know lots of them were quite nervous but they should be proud of themselves. I enjoyed chatting to each and every one. They did themselves, their parents, teachers and school proud. They are such great representatives for Crook Log.'
- “Crook log have been fantastic with my daughter especially the SENCO team they have been an amazing support system for me and my daughter. They have gone above and beyond and I am so grateful to them all.”
