"Excellent Education but Room for Improvement"

My child has been attending St Giles' Spencer Academy for a few years now and I'm generally very happy with the education they're receiving. The teachers are knowledgeable and engaging, and the school's facilities are always well-maintained. However, I do think the school could improve its communication with parents - sometimes it feels like we're not being kept in the loop about important events or issues.
