"Co-op Academy Portland - A Great Foundation for Life"

Our daughter attended Co-op Academy Portland from Reception to Year 6. She loved the creative curriculum and the emphasis on building relationships between staff, children, and parents. We were impressed by the school's values and the opportunities for community service. However, we felt that the school could improve its communication with parents.
