"Good school with some areas for improvement"

We're generally happy with Highfield St Matthew's, but we've noticed that some classes can get a bit overcrowded. The teachers are mostly great, but we've had some issues with communication. Overall, we're giving it a good rating, but there's definitely room for improvement.
