## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent school with wonderful staff!: We've been at Birchen Coppice for 3 years now and we've had an amazing experience. The teachers are so supportive and kind, and my child always comes home with a smile on his face. We love the new wrap around care and the Magic Breakfast programme is a game changer! *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — A great place to learn and grow!: My child has been at Birchen Coppice for 2 years and has thrived. The school values of kindness, respect and responsibility are really evident in the way the teachers and staff interact with the children. The Forest School programme is also a highlight for my child. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good, but room for improvement: We were at Birchen Coppice for 5 years and had a generally positive experience. However, the school did struggle with behaviour management at times and I felt that the teachers could have been more consistent. That being said, the school has a lovely atmosphere and the staff are generally very supportive. *(Mar 2021)*
