"Potential, But Room for Improvement"

Our daughter has been attending Coppice Academy for a year now, and while we're pleased with the values they're teaching, we feel that the communication between parents and teachers could be better. The facilities are modern, and the staff seem committed, but we're still waiting to see the impact on our daughter's academic progress.
