## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Love the sense of community at The Willows: My daughter has been at The Willows for a year now and I'm so impressed with the sense of community and the values that the school promotes. The FISH values are really making a difference in her behaviour and attitude towards others. I love the opportunities for extracurricular activities too! *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some teething issues but overall a great school: My son is still relatively new to The Willows, but I have mixed feelings about the school so far. On the plus side, the teachers seem lovely and the facilities are great. However, I've noticed that the school lunches can be a bit chaotic and I've had some issues with communication with the staff. Still, I'm keeping an open mind and hoping things will improve. *(Jan 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent school with great staff: My son was at The Willows for three years and I couldn't be happier with the education and care he received. The staff are all so supportive and the school facilities are excellent. I especially appreciated the work with Ipswich Town Football Club's foundation - it really helped my son's confidence and physical health. *(Jun 2021)*
