- **5/5** — Outstanding Education and Care: Our child attended St Oswald's for several years and we were consistently impressed with the excellent education and care they received. The teachers are dedicated and supportive and the school's values are clearly evident throughout the school. We would highly recommend St Oswald's to anyone considering a Catholic primary school. *(Jun 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent School and Friendly Staff: We have been impressed with the way the school has supported our child's faith and learning. The facilities are also very good and the outdoor spaces are well used. Emily and I would recommend St Oswald's to anyone looking for a Catholic school with a caring atmosphere. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some Positives but Room for Improvement: We have been pleased with the school's approach to learning and the teachers have been helpful. However, our child has sometimes struggled with the pace of some lessons and we have found the communication with the school to be occasional rather than regular. Overall, it's a good school but we think it could be even better with some tweaks. *(Dec 2021)*
