## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A Home away from Home: We've been at Windmill for 2 years now, and I can honestly say it's the best decision we've made for our child. The staff are caring, the facilities are excellent, and the values of kindness and compassion are truly embedded in the school's ethos. Our child has grown in confidence and love learning. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Feelings: We've been at Windmill for a year now, and while we love the values and ethos, we've had some issues with communication and organization. The staff are lovely, but it feels like there's a lot of behind-the-scenes juggling going on. Still, we're committed to seeing it through and making it work. *(Jul 2022)*
- **5/5** — Inclusive and Supportive: Windmill has been a game-changer for our family. The school's commitment to inclusion and support is evident in everything they do. My child has special needs, and the staff have been incredibly understanding and accommodating. We feel so valued and supported as a family. *(May 2022)*
- **4/5** — Excellent School Community: We moved out of the area, but we still miss Windmill! The school community was incredible during our time there. The events, the newsletters, the parent meetings - everything was so well-organized and thoughtful. Our child thrived, and we were grateful for that. *(Jan 2022)*
