I have many fond memories of our children's time at Springfield. The school's values of kindness, respect and responsibility truly shine through in the way the students and staff interact. We were impressed by the Open Evening and the Headteacher's Presentation.

"Some Positives and Some Negatives"

We've had a mixed experience with our child's education at Springfield. On the one hand, the Alien Invasion project was a great idea and really engaged our child in Sociology. On the other hand, we've struggled with the occasional lack of communication from the teachers and the school's response to bullying incidents.
