"Good school, but room for improvement"

My child attended Kingfisher Primary Academy for a few years, and while the teachers were generally good, I felt that the school could have offered more support for children with special needs. The facilities were modern, and the school's values were great, but I felt that the school could have done more to engage with parents. Overall, a good school, but not perfect.
