## Recent parent reviews

- **3/5** — Mixed Feelings: I've had mixed feelings about Eckington Junior School. On the one hand, my child has had some really positive experiences and has made some great friends. On the other hand, I've sometimes felt that the school could be more responsive to parents' concerns and questions. Overall, I think the school has its strengths and weaknesses, but I'm not entirely convinced it's the right fit for our family. *(Oct 2023)*

- **5/5** — Great School, Would Recommend: My child loves attending Eckington Junior School and I'm really happy with the values and culture that the school promotes. The teachers are all so friendly and supportive, and my child always talks about how much they enjoy their lessons. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that sometimes the communication between school and parents could be improved. *(Apr 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Education and Care: I have two children who attended Eckington Junior School and I couldn't be happier with the education and care they received. The school's focus on emotional well-being and safety really resonated with me as a parent, and I felt confident that my children were in a safe and supportive environment.
