"A Truly Welcoming School Community"

My child has settled in so well at The Costello School and we've been blown away by the warm and welcoming community. The headteacher's welcome on the website really does reflect the school's ethos - my child feels valued and supported every day. The digital learning scheme has also been a revelation - my child is learning so much and is really engaged with the technology.

"Excellent Facilities and Values"

We've been so impressed with the facilities at The Costello School. The swimming pool and sports hall have been a huge hit with our child. We also appreciate how the school promotes the values of RESPECT and RESILIENCE, which are evident in the way the children interact with each other. Overall, we're really happy with the school.

"Room for Improvement"

We were pleased to see that The Costello School has a good Ofsted report, but unfortunately, our experience was mixed. Our child enjoyed the co-curricular activities, particularly the Duke of Edinburgh award, but we felt that the school could have been more supportive with the transition to Year 11. Overall, a decent school, but not exceptional.
