## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Outstanding all-round: I'm so impressed with everything about Coombe Dean. The facilities are excellent, the teachers are supportive and the extracurricular activities are fantastic. My son has particularly enjoyed the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme and has made some great friends through it. *(Mar 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent school with amazing values!: My daughter has been at Coombe Dean for a year now and I've seen a huge improvement in her confidence and academic progress. The emphasis on community, integrity and opportunity is fantastic and I love how the school celebrates the children's achievements. *(Oct 2022)*
- **4/5** — A good school, but some areas for improvement: We were at Coombe Dean for three years and had a generally positive experience. The school's values are great and the rugby team is excellent, but we found the communication between teachers and parents to be a bit patchy at times. Overall, a good school, but could be better. *(Sep 2021)*
