## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent all-round experience: We're thoroughly impressed with the teaching staff, particularly Miss Thompson in Year 2 who has gone above and beyond to support our daughter's learning. The school's facilities, including the playground and library, are also top-notch. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the catering could be improved. *(Oct 2025)*
- **4/5** — Mixed feelings about our experience: We've had a mixed experience with Compass Community School so far. Our son has a wonderful class teacher, Mr. Patel, but we've had some issues with communication from the school office and feel that the homework is sometimes excessive. The school's community events are lovely, though, and we appreciate the focus on mental health and wellbeing. *(May 2025)*
