## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Some positive, some areas for improvement: We've been at St Andrew's for a year now and while it's been a positive experience for our child, there are a few areas we'd like to see improved. The facilities are excellent, the staff are friendly, and the education is good. However, we've experienced some inconsistency in marking and feedback, and the pace of the school can feel a bit rushed at times. We're happy to stick with it for now, but we're keeping a close eye on these areas. *(Nov 2022)*
- **5/5** — Our children thrive at St Andrew's: We've been at St Andrew's for two years now and it's been an absolute game-changer for our children. The Forest School setting is incredible, our kids love the outdoor activities and the forest school setting has really encouraged their curiosity and love for nature. The staff are amazing, so supportive and caring, and the values they instill in the children are truly impressive. *(Jun 2022)*
- **5/5** — A wonderful school community: We've been at St Andrew's for five years now and it's been an incredible experience for our children.

Our kids have grown into confident and compassionate individuals, and we couldn't be prouder. *(Apr 2022)*
