"Mixed Experience"

Our experience at Wigston College was mixed. On the one hand, the facilities are excellent and the teachers are knowledgeable and enthusiastic. However, we felt that our child was not stretched as much as they could have been. Perhaps more attention to individual needs would have made a big difference.
