## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Wonderful school with a loving atmosphere: My son has loved his time at Silchester and we're so grateful for the compassion, courage and respect that the teachers and staff promote. The school has a beautiful forest school and the kids get to go on lots of amazing trips. We feel so lucky to be a part of this community! *(May 2022)*
- **4/5** — Excellent school with great values: We've been really impressed with the values that Silchester teaches - our daughter loves learning about compassion, courage and respect. The teachers are all so kind and supportive, and the school has a great sense of community. We do feel a bit frustrated that the homework can be quite heavy at times, but overall we're very happy with the school. *(Sep 2021)*
- **4/5** — Good school with some areas for improvement: We moved away from the area so our children could no longer attend Silchester, but we were generally happy with the school. The teachers were friendly and the children seemed to enjoy their time there. However, we did feel that the communication from the school could be better at times, and the school could benefit from some additional resources. *(Feb 2020)*
