- **5/5** — Best school ever!: My son transitioned smoothly from primary school to Somervale and the staff have been fantastic in supporting him. The facilities are excellent and the values of hard work, kindness and enjoyment of learning are truly instilled in the students. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Excellent teaching and extracurricular activities: My daughter has thrived at Somervale, her teachers are passionate and knowledgeable, and the extracurricular activities on offer are fantastic. She has made many friends and is really enjoying her time at the school. *(Mar 2022)*
- **3/5** — Mixed experience: My child attended Somervale a few years ago and had a bit of an uneven experience. Some teachers were excellent, but others seemed less engaged. However, the school did a good job of supporting my child's SEND needs and the transition process from primary to secondary was well-handled. *(Jun 2021)*
