"Mixed Experience"

We've had a bit of a mixed experience with De Aston School. On the one hand, the teachers are great and the school has a lovely atmosphere. On the other hand, the transition from primary school was a bit rocky for our child, and we've had some issues with communication from the school. We're hoping things will improve as our child settles in.
