"Mixed experiences"

We've had a bit of a mixed bag at Easington Academy. While some of the teachers have been excellent, others have been less so. The school's values and ethos are great, and my child has enjoyed the extracurricular activities. However, there have been some issues with communication and follow-up on concerns.
