"Some Concerns"

We've been at Great Witchingham Church of England Primary Academy for a while now, and while we've generally been pleased with the school, we do have some concerns about the level of support provided for children with special needs. Our child has required some extra help and we've found that the school has been a bit inconsistent in providing this. However, the staff are generally kind and well-intentioned, and we appreciate the school's focus on Christian values.
