"Helped my child shine"

My child had a fantastic time at Glenwood and made some wonderful friends. The school has a great focus on individual needs and helped my child to shine in areas they never thought they could. The Ofsted report was a testament to the hard work of the staff and I have nothing but praise for the school.

"Room for improvement"

We have been generally happy with our experience of Glenwood School, but I feel there could be more support for parents in terms of communication and keeping us updated on our child's progress. The staff are friendly and the facilities are good, but I'm not convinced that the school's values are fully integrated into the curriculum.
