"Excellent education and values"

My child attended John Taylor Free School for four years and I was thoroughly impressed with the education they received. The values of the school, such as 'Resilience' and 'Teamwork', were instilled in them and have stayed with them long after they left. I would highly recommend the school.

"Good school with room for improvement"

I've been impressed with the progress my child has made at John Taylor Free School, but I do think there's room for improvement in terms of communication with parents. The facilities are excellent and the staff are generally very supportive, but I've had a few issues with getting information about school events and policies.
