"Decent in some aspects"

The teachers were all brilliant but the way most of them taught was confusing and over explained,they treated the year 6s like year 2s. overall it was quite frustrating but when i look back,i still prefer it to my current school

"Would Advise To look Elsewhere "

It’s most certainly not the best school my children have gone to. There’s always issues after issue. I would avoid at all costs
