"Room for Improvement"

Our son started at Southwood Infant School in September and we're still getting used to the new environment. The teachers are nice but we've found the communication from the school to be a bit patchy. We're hoping it will get better as the year goes on.

"Good Experience"

We moved to the area and my daughter was already in Year 1 at Southwood Infant School. The teachers were always supportive and the facilities were great. We had a good experience at the school but not an exceptional one.
