- **5/5** — Outstanding Leadership and Support: We've been part of the Kings Oak community for three years now, and we couldn't be happier. The school's leadership is exceptional, and the staff are dedicated to helping every child succeed. My child has thrived in a challenging year group, and we've been grateful for the extra support they've received from the teaching team. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Experience: We've been at Kings Oak for two years now, and while we've had some great experiences, there have been a few challenges. My child has struggled with some of the maths work, and I've found the school's communication a bit patchy at times. That being said, the staff are generally friendly, and the school's values and approach to wellbeing are really great. Maybe we just need to find a better fit for our child's learning style? *(Jan 2022)*
- **4/5** — Great Start to Education: My child started at Kings Oak in Reception and had a lovely time there. The school's approach to Phonics and Reading was excellent, and my child made great progress. I was impressed by the facilities and the friendliness of the staff. Overall, I'd definitely recommend Kings Oak to other families. *(Mar 2021)*
