## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Best School Ever: I am so grateful to have St Francis as my child's school. The warm and welcoming environment is perfect for my child to grow and thrive. The 'Living Life to the Fullest' values really shine through in the way the staff and teachers support the children. My child loves the Breakfast and After-School Club and I feel safe leaving them there. *(May 2022)*
- **3/5** — Mixed Feelings: I have mixed feelings about St Francis. On the one hand, my child loves their teacher and the school's emphasis on individual strengths is really beneficial. However, I sometimes find the communication with the school to be a bit lacking and I worry that my child is getting a bit behind in their reading skills. Overall, I would say it's a good school but there is definitely room for improvement. *(Nov 2021)*
- **4/5** — Fantastic Community: My child attended St Francis from Reception to Year 6 and we loved every moment of it. The school's emphasis on diversity and inclusivity is truly remarkable and I think this helped my child develop into a confident and compassionate young person. I was always impressed by the way the staff and teachers worked together to create a sense of community and belonging. *(Aug 2020)*
