- **4/5** — Some positives and negatives: I have mixed feelings about St Leonard's. The school has a lovely atmosphere and my child was happy there. However, I did find the communication from the school to be a bit hit-and-miss at times, and I think they could improve on this. Overall, it's a good school, but not without its flaws. *(Sep 2022)*
