"Good School, Could Improve"

Overall, we are pleased with Riddings Junior School. The school's emphasis on PRIDE values is great and our child seems to be enjoying their time here. However, the school could improve on communication with parents - we sometimes struggle to get updates on our child's progress. We'd like to see more opportunities for parents to get involved.
