- **4/5** — Mixed Feelings: While I have some reservations about the school's accessibility and some of the resources available, I do think that Canford Heath Junior School has a lot to offer. The staff are usually friendly and the facilities are clean and modern. However, I feel that the school could do more to accommodate children with disabilities. *(Aug 2023)*
