"Some great aspects, but could improve communication"

We've been at The Canons for a few years now and some of the teachers are excellent. However, we've found the communication between the school and parents to be a bit hit-and-miss. The facilities are good and the values the school promotes are great, but we've had some issues with organization and planning.
