Positive report

10:24am Wednesday 30th April 2008


IT was nice to read of the positive outcome for Holywell Primary and Nursery School with regards to their recent Ofsted inspection.

As a former parent of two children who attended the school, I would like to point out that, in my opinion, there are two major key area's they should now concentrate on to improve the school further - Special Needs Education and Equality and Fairness.

If you are a parent of a child with special needs I would strongly recommend you check out the school's policies covering the above items before sending them there.

E Wilkes (Mrs), Rubery
