## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent School with a Clear Vision: I've been really impressed with the way the school is run and the values that are taught to the children. The K.I.N.D approach really resonates with me and I've seen a significant positive impact on my child's behavior and attitude towards school. The facilities are also great, especially the library and the IT suites. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — A Warm and Welcoming School: We've been at Ravensdale Junior School for a few years now and I can honestly say it's been an incredible experience for both my child and myself. The emphasis on kindness and inclusivity is truly reflected in the way the teachers and staff treat the children with such care and respect. My child has really flourished here, especially with the opportunity to learn musical instruments and perform in the school bands. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Good School, but Some Disappointments: We left Ravensdale Junior School a few years ago, but my child still speaks fondly of their time there. The school did a great job of supporting her learning and helping her develop her interests, especially in art and music. However, I do think there were some issues with communication and organisation at times, which made it difficult for us to stay on top of things. *(Nov 2020)*
