At every school we visit, we ask teachers to complete a feedback form so we can ensure that each session and learning experience is as educational, fun and diverse as possible. We ask children, parents and teachers what they think and ask teachers to give us a rating of 1-5 stars. We are very pleased to say that, since introducing this 7 years ago, 98+% of schools have given us 5* – a reputation we are very proud of and work hard to keep.
Here is a small selection of what schools have to say about us – what will your school say?
