"Some aspects of the school could improve"

We've had a mixed experience at The Dukeries Academy. Our son enjoys his lessons and the staff are generally friendly, but we've had some issues with communication and the school's administration. Perhaps with some improvements in these areas, we could give the academy a higher rating.
