"Room for Improvement in Some Areas"

While we've been generally happy with our son's experience at Merchant Taylors' School, we do feel that there are some areas where the school could improve. For example, communication between teachers and parents could be better, and some of the facilities are showing signs of wear and tear. That being said, the school's commitment to academic excellence and co-curricular activities is still impressive.
