"Mixed Experience"

While my child has had a generally positive experience at Culverhill School, there have been some issues with communication and consistency. The school's staff are generally caring and dedicated, but there have been some instances of inconsistency in the way certain issues have been handled. I appreciate the school's commitment to providing a holistic education, but I would like to see more opportunities for parent involvement in school events.

"Excellent Support for Children with Complex Needs"

As the parent of a child with complex needs, I have been blown away by the level of support and care provided by Culverhill School. The school's commitment to providing a holistic education that meets the individual needs of each child is truly impressive. My child has thrived in a safe and inclusive environment, and I couldn't be more grateful. One area for improvement would be to ensure that there are more opportunities for parent involvement in school events.
