## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent School Experience: We've been incredibly happy with Penair School. The facilities are fantastic, and the staff go above and beyond to support our child. They've really helped her develop a love of learning and achieve great results. We've been really impressed with the school's Pride, Belonging, Opportunity, Learning values too. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Helped Our Child Thrive: Our child attended Penair School for three years and loved their time there. They were particularly enthusiastic about the extra-curricular activities on offer, such as music and sports teams. The teachers were always supportive and helped our child thrive. We were a bit sad when they left, but we're grateful for the great education they received. *(Jul 2021)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Experience: We've had a bit of a mixed experience with Penair School. The school meals are a bit hit-and-miss, and our child has sometimes struggled with online safety. However, the staff are generally friendly and supportive, and the school's commitment to reducing waste and climate change is fantastic. We're hoping that things will improve as our child gets older. *(Feb 2020)*
