## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent school with a caring community: My child has been at Merritts Brook for 3 years and we've had a fantastic experience. The teachers are supportive and the facilities are excellent, especially the playground and sports hall. We love the values of the school and how they encourage the children to be their best selves. My child is thriving here and I feel confident that they're getting a great education. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good school, but some areas for improvement: We've been at Merritts Brook for a year now and while we've had some positive experiences, there are a few areas that need improvement. The teaching is generally good, but sometimes the communication from the school can be a bit poor. The facilities are great, especially the playground, and the values of the school are excellent. However, we've had some issues with behaviour in class and the school's approach to discipline could be better. *(Jan 2022)*
- **5/5** — A true gem in Birmingham: I previously had a child at Merritts Brook and I was thoroughly impressed with the school. The staff are passionate and dedicated, and the school's focus on mental health and wellbeing is truly inspiring. My child made great progress and developed a love of learning that has stayed with them. I would highly recommend Merritts Brook to any parent looking for a great school. *(Feb 2021)*
