"I would like to say a huge thank you for making Manor Junior School such an inspiring school for all the children. N.........’s journey through Manor Junior School has been filled with many happy, memorable moments. She has grown in confidence and I have certainly noticed her passion for learning. I feel that she is ready to start a new chapter in her education and will be able to embrace secondary school with confidence. I have been most impressed with the engaging curriculum that you have developed for the school; all the extra-curricular activities that my daughter has been able to participate in; and all the responsibilities that she has been privileged to fulfil at the school. All the staff at Manor Junior School have been amazing and I would like to thank them all for their dedication, hard work and support. 

I wish Manor Junior school continuing success for the future.

Best wishes,"

Thank you so much for instilling the need for caring for the environment and rewarding them for encouraging. I love this school, it's so much community-focused. Just got back from a "Parent Pop-In" visit to class 5M.

It has been a great joy to see the positive impact MJS had on G*****. We believe that the strong foundation MJS gave G***** is what has made way for him to move on.

Our sincere thanks to all his teachers both current and past, the office team and the headteacher. 

G***** will always be proud of MJS and hold dear to his heart all the lovely memories he had while at MJS.

We wish MJS the very best.

We wanted to extend our immense gratitude for the recent work experience placement at Manor Junior School which probably may not have been possible without your valued help and guidance. Our daughter was extremely pleased and delighted during her placement in terms of carrying out her duties and interacting with other staff to get that real-world experience which will make a lot of difference for the future.

We've felt fortunate to be part of such a warm, nurturing school community for the past four years. MJS has helped shape and develop our boys in a million ways and they'll carry these experiences for life. From Ms D'Netto, to the office staff, to the teachers, and all of the supporting staff, everyone has been wonderful, helpful, caring, and truly interested in the welfare and academic preparation of the children. Thank you so much for everything.

I just wanted to say thank you for the swift and efficient way my complaint on Monday ... was dealt with.

Your quick and decisive actions, from me presenting the situation at the school gates on Monday to the outcome achieved by the end of the school day, has been extremely satisfactory.

I had the pleasure to watch my son I***** and friends perform in todays performance to mark Earth day. 

It was the first time we have been invited to watch a show and an absolute pleasure to be in the audience and watch these little ones so passionate about the environment. 

The performance was an all dancing, singing affair. 

Thank you to the year 3 team boosting the confidence of these little ones and supporting those who needed it. 

Most of 3R parents turned up and the wassapp group afterwards was full of complements of the kids and the team ensuring the show ran meticulously. 

Year 3 Parent

It was such an enormous pleasure to visit your beautiful warm and authentic school!  You have created such a wonderful safe space for the children and in particular those who are neurodiversity. Everything about the school reflects the values and things that are important to you and it is a place I can only wish for my children to go to and I hope you are very, very proud of the school! I certainly would be!

Thank you for allowing us to visit and observe your amazing staff and see all the wonderful work that is being implemented. I was very impressed with the meticulous organisation and the curriculum journey across the year groups. The children displayed impeccable behaviour and were fully focused and engaged. The visit has enabled me to observe the quality of work produced and the calibre of the children joining Barking Abbey School. I also observed how individual children in their groups were so supportive of one another especially when I was listening to the children to check for their understanding. It was clearly visible that MJS is a school that takes pride in providing an environment that strives on inclusivity.

Please do thank all the staff for allowing us to visit their lessons yesterday.

Our daughter has loved the swimming this half term, that she has learned a lot. We are now going to look into more swimming lessons for her too. Having the pool in school was a great idea.

RE: Attended Tower of London trip Tuesday 16th April 2024 
Firstly, want to say that the trip was so organised. Students and parents knew the protocol and the students clearly were briefed and to be on their best behaviour at all times.
Secondly, just want to say that Ms xxxxx and Mr xxxxx were amazing. Absolute teamwork and supporting one another throughout the day.
It was an honour to be part of a child’s trip and one that gives you an idea of how they are developing socially and academically in school.
The trip showed me the; kind, caring and compassionate environment my son is being nurtured in. 
Wishing you all the best.
