Great Tey Church of England (Controlled) Primary School is a small, friendly community school just outside Colchester. At Great Tey, it is our strong belief that children learn best when they are happy, calm and engaged and we strive to give children experiences and opportunities which will engage their interest, creating an environment which allows every child to flourish and achieve to the best of their ability.
Children here are well supported by a fantastic team of teachers and teaching assistants. Our children often say that "school feels like a family" - a reflection of the values of cooperation, support, acceptance and friendship that we seek to promote. I feel very privileged to be the Headteacher of Great Tey Primary School: to be responsible for each child's welfare, education and happiness is something I take very seriously.

Report
I am very happy with my son's progress at Great Tey. I think it is a brilliant little school, my son has settled here very well and is always happy to go to school. It is clear the school is run by a Head that wants the best for all children. My daughter has loved school since the day she started. As parents it is so nice/reassuring for us to know that she attends a school that provides such fantastic care and education.
Pupil Comments
Report
100% of KS2 pupils and 84% of EYFS / KS1 pupils said they enjoy being at school ( 3 pupils in EYFS / KS1 weren't sure and 1 said no, he likes being at home with mummy.) What I like about school is that I've got a lot of friends and if I'm worried they help me. What I like about Gt. Tey Primary School is that you can always talk to a teacher if you're stuck or have a problem.
