## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Outstanding School for Our Child!: My children love attending St John's Church of England Academy. They enjoy the sports facilities, especially the wild life garden and assault course. The staff are caring and committed to ensuring every child reaches their full potential. We feel so grateful to be part of this friendly school community. *(Feb 2023)*
- **4/5** — Some Great Things, But Room for Improvement: We've been happy with the education our child has received at St John's, but we've had some issues with communication with teachers. The school's Christian values and community spirit are lovely, but we feel they could be more inclusive. The facilities are good, but sometimes feel a bit dated. Overall, it's a solid choice for families in the area. *(Oct 2022)*
- **4/5** — Excellent Education and Values: My child attended St John's from Reception to Year 6 and had a wonderful experience. The school's focus on Christian values and inclusivity really resonated with us. The facilities are great, with plenty of opportunities for outdoor learning. My child's confidence and self-esteem flourished during their time here. *(May 2022)*
