The school's values of being Respectful, Ambitious and Proud really come across in the way the children behave. I'm so impressed with the progress he's made since starting here! *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — A good school, but some issues: I have mixed feelings about Birdwell Primary School. My child had a great teacher and made some good friends, but we did experience some issues with communication from the school. The facilities are great, but I didn't feel like the school really did enough to support children with SEN. Overall, it was okay, but not perfect. *(Jan 2022)*
