## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Wonderful School Community!: My child has been at Orchard Lea Junior for 2 years and I couldn't be happier with the school. The teachers are caring, supportive, and genuinely interested in helping each child reach their full potential. My child's confidence has grown significantly and they love attending school. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Kind, caring and inclusive environment: Orchard Lea Junior is a wonderful school. My child has settled in so well and the staff are always happy to help with any concerns or questions. The Learning Powers programme is fantastic and I love how they encourage the children to develop these skills. *(Mar 2022)*
- **4/5** — Generally good, but some areas for improvement: My child attended Orchard Lea Junior 5 years ago and we were generally happy with the school. However, at times I felt that the school could have been more proactive in addressing some of the children's issues. That being said, the teachers were always friendly and supportive, and I appreciate the effort they made to help my child. *(Jan 2021)*
