"Great School, but a Few Teething Issues"

We were really happy with Middle Barton Primary School when our child was a student. The teachers were excellent and the school's emphasis on outdoor learning was a highlight. However, we did experience a few issues with communication from the school and there were some changes to the curriculum that we were not consulted on.
