- **4/5** — Great School, Some Room for Improvement: We were pleased with the school's commitment to PE and sport, but sometimes felt that the focus on Christian values overshadowed other important aspects of a child's education. The staff were generally good, but there were some variable experiences with teaching assistants. *(Mar 2021)*
