## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — A Decent School: I have mixed feelings about Willow Primary. The teachers are generally good, but the communication between home and school could be better. My child has had some issues with bullying, but the SENCo has been helpful. Overall, it's an okay school, but not outstanding. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — A Home from Home!: I've been blown away by the warmth and kindness of the staff at Willow Primary. My child loves the Willow's Den Wraparound Childcare and the school meals are always a hit. The ASPIRE values really shine through in everything they do. *(Feb 2022)*
- **5/5** — Exceeded Expectations: My two children attended Willow Primary and I was consistently impressed with the school's commitment to individuality and respect. The P.E. department is particularly impressive and the school's sports facilities are fantastic. We have nothing but fond memories of our time at Willow. *(Jun 2021)*
