"Lovely school in need of new leadership. "

Lovely grounds and facilities but the current head let’s the school down. Autocratic and unresponsive in my experience. Alongside a recent high turnover of teachers I find the school hard to recommend.

"Amazing experience!"

We've been so impressed with the facilities at Parkside School. Our son has thrived in the Duke of Edinburgh program and loved the annual careers fair. The staff are friendly and approachable, and we appreciate the school's commitment to safeguarding and child protection.

"Mixed feelings"

We had mixed feelings about Parkside School during our time there. Our child enjoyed the extra-curricular activities and the teachers were generally good. However, we felt that the communication with parents could be improved, and there were a few issues with the school's handling of pupil premium funding.
