"Mixed experience"

We're still getting to know the school, but it's been a bit of a mixed experience so far. The staff are lovely, but we've had some issues with communication and organisation. The facilities are great, but we're not convinced about the quality of teaching yet. Fingers crossed it gets better!

We were a bit nervous about sending our little one to nursery, but the staff at Selston have been absolutely amazing. They're so kind, patient, and dedicated to helping our child learn and grow. We love the Christian ethos and the focus on individual interests. Our child has thrived here!
