"Good but could be better"

My child is settling in well at Poolsbrook, but I do think the school could improve its communication with parents, particularly about events and important dates.

"Wonderful school!"

We have a lot of fond memories of our time at Poolsbrook, where our child received a great education and made lifelong friends. The breakfast club and wraparound services were especially helpful for us.
