## Recent parent reviews

- **3/5** — Mixed Experience: I have mixed feelings about William Barcroft Junior School. My son enjoyed the Diwali celebration and the Grimsby Town Football Club visit, but I felt that the school could improve communication with parents. The staff were kind and supportive, but I didn't see enough differentiation in the lessons. Overall, it was an okay experience. *(Sep 2023)*
- **4/5** — Good Education and Values: My son joined William Barcroft Junior School last year, and I've been impressed with the education and values they're teaching him. He loves the planetarium trips and the Jungle Book theatre production. The staff are welcoming and responsive. Overall, a good school. *(Jun 2023)*
