"Some positives, but areas for improvement"

I've been pleased with the welcome my child has received at Skyswood, but I do think that the communication between parents and teachers could be better. I've also found the school's website to be lacking in updates and information. That said, the teachers seem dedicated and the nursery is lovely.
