Overall Experience
The reviews reveal a mixed bag of opinions regarding this school. The overall experience seems to depend on the individual child and the parents' involvement.
Positive Feedback
One reviewer, Sadia Masood, had a very positive experience with the school. She praised the teacher for being "friendly and welcoming" and encouraging children to reach their full potential.
Negative Feedback
However, another reviewer, Aliyah Khan, had a very different experience. She expressed concern about bullying and lack of action by the headteacher, Mr. Duke. She also raised concerns about certain staff members targeting specific children. Khan stated that several parents have expressed similar concerns and that a significant number of pupils have left the school recently.
Infrastructure and Safety
A third reviewer, Ayesha Aziz, highlighted an issue with irresponsible parent parking, which is having a detrimental effect on children's and residents' safety. Despite letters from the school and notifications to the police and wardens, the issue remains unresolved.
