"Happy Memories"

We moved away from Birmingham, but we're still so grateful for the time our child spent at Canterbury Cross. The school's emphasis on respect and equality really resonated with us, and our child thrived in the supportive environment. We have happy memories of their time there and are so thankful for the positive impact the school had on their life.

"Good Experience, but Some Room for Improvement"

We've had a generally positive experience at Canterbury Cross, but there are a few areas where we think the school could improve. The staff are all friendly and welcoming, but we've had some issues with communication and organisation. The SHARE values are great, but we think the school could do more to involve parents in the decision-making process.
