## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Some areas for improvement: Overall, I'm happy with The Castle School, but there are a few areas that could be improved. Communication between teachers and parents can be hit-or-miss, and I've noticed some inconsistencies in the quality of teaching. That being said, my child is happy and learning a lot, so we'll continue to stay here for now. *(Feb 2023)*
