Looking round primary schools for the first time

[Summerdays2014]

Morning,

My son will be 4 in January and we are starting to look at potential primary schools next week. Does anyone have any tips about what I should be looking for or questions to ask?

Many thanks

I read the Ofsted reports and ended up putting my daughter into one further away as it had outstanding for behaviour. The one nearer us had alot of bullying from what I've heard etc. Also have a look at websites and get a feel for what they do by looking through galleries. Looking around and going to the opening days is a good idea as they can tell you what they do in more detail. I really liked the feel of the one my daughter is at. When it's raining etc the walk is less fun but I feel it's worth going that bit further to take her somewhere I feel she will do well in in the long run 😊

Thanks mumof2 I’ve looked at ofsted - 2 are rated outstanding but haven’t been inspected for almost 8 years!!!
Any other tips?
