"Mixed experience"

I have mixed feelings about Darrick Wood Junior School. My child attended the school from Year 3 to Year 6 and while they received a good education, I felt that the school could have done more to support my child's individual needs. The facilities are good and the staff are generally friendly, but I would have liked to see more consistency in the teaching.
