Reviews
- The strongest signal is a positive staff culture: teachers and assistants describe supportive colleagues, good leadership, and a warm working environment.
- Staff cautions are consistent but not severe, mainly salary, limited growth, stress, and workload.
- Parent-facing commentary is less visible than the staff signal, but available summaries describe families valuing teacher knowledge of individual children, warmth, and community feel.
- The practical caveat remains the primary-only model, which means families must plan a later secondary move.
