## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Exceptional School with Wonderful Staff: I've been thoroughly impressed with the progress my child has made since joining St Andrew's. The staff are kind, supportive and genuinely care about each child's well-being. The values they teach are in line with our own family values and I feel confident that my child is being well-rounded and developed. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Love the School's Community Spirit: We've been at St Andrew's for a few years now and I must say I'm really impressed with the sense of community. The teachers are approachable, the facilities are great and the values they teach are fantastic. My child always comes home with a smile on their face and I feel like they're getting a great education. *(Jul 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Support for Children's Development: As a parent, I'm always looking for ways to support my child's development and St Andrew's has exceeded my expectations. The staff are very supportive and offer regular progress updates. The school's focus on Christian values is also something I feel is very important for my child's moral development. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Feelings About Our Time at St Andrew's: We had a mixed experience at St Andrew's. Some of the staff were lovely, but others seemed quite disorganised. The facilities were generally good, but the school's focus on Christian values was a bit too intense for my liking. My child did make some good friends, but overall, I'm not sure I'd recommend the school to others. *(Dec 2021)*
