- **5/5** — Excellent school with a strong sense of community: We've been at St Oswald's for 5 years now and we've never been disappointed. The school has a wonderful sense of community and the teachers are all so supportive. My son is thriving and we're so grateful for the opportunities he's had here. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good school but could improve on some areas: We've been at St Oswald's for a year now and we've had a generally positive experience. The school has a good reputation in the area and the teachers are all qualified and experienced. However, we've noticed that the school could do with some renovation work as some of the facilities are a bit outdated. *(Mar 2021)*
