"Mixed feelings"

We have mixed feelings about St Columb Major Academy. The staff are generally friendly and supportive, but sometimes communication with parents could be better. The facilities are excellent, but we feel that the school could do more to engage with the wider community. Our child has made some good friends, but we worry that the class sizes are a bit too large for their needs.
