- **5/5** — Excellent School Experience: My child has been at Dove Bank Primary School for 3 years now and we can't be happier! The kindness, aspiration and resilience values are truly embodied by the teachers and staff, and my child has grown into a confident and independent learner. The school's commitment to science and outdoor activities is also a highlight, and we're so grateful for the opportunities they've provided. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Experience: We've had a mixed experience at Dove Bank Primary School so far. The teachers are generally friendly and communicative, but we've had some issues with communication from the school office. On the plus side, the school's focus on kindness and well-being is something we really appreciate, and our child has settled in well. We'll continue to monitor the situation and hope things improve. *(Mar 2022)*
