## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Aureus School exceeds expectations!: I'm thoroughly impressed with the facilities and the way the school puts its values into practice. My child has been involved in the Duke of Edinburgh Award and the Literacy & Oracy program, both of which have been fantastic experiences for them. The teachers are supportive and always willing to listen. We're so glad we chose Aureus! *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent school with a great community spirit: We've only just joined the Aureus School community, but we're already feeling at home. The staff are friendly and approachable, and the school's commitment to SMSC and Cyber Safety is reassuring. My child is enjoying their pastoral system and is feeling supported by their peers. We're looking forward to the next few years! *(Mar 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some positives, some areas for improvement: I have mixed feelings about our time at Aureus School. On the one hand, my child benefited from the Super Curricular Revision Strategies and the school's focus on inclusion. On the other hand, we experienced some bureaucratic issues with the school's uniform policy and ParentPay system. Overall, we had a good experience, but there were some hiccups along the way. *(Nov 2020)*
