## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Wonderful community-focused school!: We've had a fantastic experience at St Joseph's so far. The teachers are caring and supportive, and the after-school clubs are a great way for our child to try new things. We especially appreciate the emphasis on kindness, empathy, and respect - it's wonderful to see our child grow into a compassionate and considerate friend. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed feelings so far: We've only just started at St Joseph's, but we're still getting used to the routine and expectations. The staff seem friendly, and our child is enjoying the nursery class. However, we're finding the uniform policy a bit restrictive, and the communication from the school could be more timely and frequent. We're hoping things will improve as we settle in. *(Apr 2022)*
- **5/5** — Great education, lovely facilities: We were very pleased with the education our child received at St Joseph's. The school has a lovely atmosphere, and the facilities are modern and well-maintained. We appreciated the regular updates and communication from the teachers, and our child always felt happy and supported. We were sad to leave, but we're grateful for the experience! *(Jul 2021)*
