## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent experience for our daughter at Shakespeare: We've been at Shakespeare for two years now and we couldn't be happier. The school's facilities are top-notch, and the staff are always so welcoming and supportive. We've seen our daughter thrive in the school's nurturing environment and we're grateful for the opportunities she's been given. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — A school that truly puts children first: Shakespeare Primary School is more than just a school - it's a community. The values of kindness, respect and responsibility are instilled in every child and are evident in everything they do. The staff are dedicated, passionate and go above and beyond to ensure our children get the best possible education. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some ups and downs, but ultimately a positive experience: We had a mixed experience at Shakespeare, but overall it was a good choice for our son. The school's nursery was fantastic and helped him settle in well, but as he got older, we felt that the class sizes were getting too large and the support for our child's needs could have been better. *(Jan 2022)*
