"Some mixed feelings"

While my child has enjoyed some aspects of Eggar's, such as the sports facilities and the teachers, I've had some concerns about the school's communication and the availability of resources for certain subjects. Overall, it's been an okay experience, but I'm hoping to see some improvements.
