Reviews
- Parents describe strong English, caring teachers and a school that works well for many long-term families, especially in the younger years.
- The negative parent signal is about value for money, the depth of the Montessori model and frustration after ownership or leadership changes.
- Staff reviews are mixed. Teachers praise students and collegiality, while older and newer comments flag workload, class sizes, resources, progression and management consistency.
