"A Good School with Room for Improvement"

We like Thorngumbald Primary School, but we do feel that the school policies could be clearer in some areas. The staff are generally friendly and supportive, but there have been a few instances where we've felt that communication could be better. We're happy with the education our child is receiving, but we'd love to see some improvements in the future.
