"Mixed Feelings"

We have had a mixed experience at Poplar Street. The teachers are generally good but we have had some issues with communication and organization. Our child is happy but we feel that the school could do more to support their specific needs.

"Excellent Facilities"

We were impressed with the school's facilities and the opportunities available to the children. My child particularly enjoyed the music lessons and PE sessions. The only reason we left was for personal reasons.
