"Not Without Its Challenges"

While we've had a generally positive experience at Glebe Farm School, there have been some communication breakdowns and issues with classroom management. However, we appreciate the school's focus on mental health and wellbeing, and our child is thriving in their classes.

"A Great Education for Our Children"

We have since moved away, but our older children still talk about their time at Glebe Farm School fondly. The school's commitment to inclusion and diversity was really impressive, and the academic programs were well-rounded and challenging.
