"Wonderful school with caring staff"
My child has been at Pickhill for a year now and I've noticed a huge improvement in her confidence and love for learning. The staff are always willing to listen and support us, whether it's about our child's progress or just a general concern. The after-school clubs are also a great way for children to explore new interests and make friends. I'm so grateful to be part of this community.

"Mixed feelings about the school"
My child has been at Pickhill for two years now and while I've seen some positive changes, I still have some concerns. The school's focus on outdoor learning is great, but sometimes the weather can be a challenge. The staff are generally friendly, but I've noticed that some teachers can be a bit disorganized at times. Overall, I think Pickhill has potential, but it needs to work on a few areas to meet my expectations.

"Excellent pre-school experience"
My son attended Pickhill pre-school for two years and it was an amazing experience for him. The staff were kind, patient, and dedicated to providing a safe and engaging environment for the children. The outdoor play area is well-maintained and allows children to explore and learn about nature. I was impressed by the school's values and commitment to providing a well-rounded education.
