Date Valley School

"I have three children at DVST. Honestly, I think the school employees are honest, hard-working, and ambitious. Whilst DVST doesn't have the biggest budget or a huge amount of resources, they have a very strong family ethos with staff, children and parents. I like the Senior Leadership of the school which has a clear vision and strategy to progress the school further, and a strong fusion with Islamic values which are important to me. Independent tutors have remarked that they consistently find DVST students to be polite, with good manners, and respectful of authority (particularly in comparison to other schools in the area). The reason is that this is a small school where teachers have a strong bond with each individual pupil. On the negative side, the school does have limited resources due to it's location, so small things like Parking (dropping off and collecting kids) can be challenging. However, as of 2021 the school is actively working with the council to find a solution for parents."

"I was invited into Date Valley school with my Life's Little Bugs workshops to teach the children healthy habits. I was bowled over by the warmth and kindness of the staff and the bright and happy children who attend — a beautiful school with beautiful souls. I left feeling very uplifted. Warm thanks to all of you for making this such a pleasant experience!"

"As a former student of Date Valley, I can honestly say there is no better Islamic primary for your children. Being a part of this community as a child is something you miss and remember forever. The teachers are amazing and and the quality of education is truly great. It may be a small school but in my opinion this just enhances the family feel and children feel comfortable. For a safe, happy and Islamic environment I highly recommend Date Valley Primary School :)"

"My 6 year old daughter goes to this school and now my 3 year old. I can say Date Valley is such a lovely school. It may not have the biggest p.e hall, biggest playground etc. But one thing it does have is 100% care and love. When I leave my 2 children I always walk away feeling safe and happy as they are in the hands of the best staff I've come across. I can say I have meet all teachers and always thought they are excellent with parents and children with activities and learning. I actually panic for secondary school time because I wish Date Valley has a secondary school for our children to go forward to. All Date Valley staff work to the fullest so keep on continuing what your doing."

"I have been a parent at date valley school for 4 years now and have two children here. There is no better school for my children. The Staff are very lovely and I feel priveldged to leave my children with them everyday. After reading previous reviews about favouritism of Pakistanis, I'd like to say that my experiences have proven otherwise as I am not Pakistani or from anywhere close to Pakistan and my children are still given just as much a chance as the next child. Unlike other Islamic schools I have visited. the community at date valley are next to none and we regularly come together as a community to raise money for school projects, fund raise and socialise. I am a very proud date valley parent! Alhamdulillah."
