reviews: [{"relativePublishTimeDescription":"2 months ago","rating":5,"text":{"text":"It's been almost 2 years since I left Springmead. So I've had enough time to gather how I feel and what I gained from the school, so here you go:\n\nAbsolutely fantastic, when you are around the school at break or in lessons, it always feels like people care. The decision to make the classes small is an overwhelmingly good one. You develop huge bonds with friends and teachers and you don't have to pretend to be someone you're not.\n\nI now go to St Laurence in Bradford. A school with over 1400 kids. But despite the fantastic friends I have from there, the friends I have from Springmead are the ones I feel connected to the most. This is because of the quality time I got to speak with them, at school, at break, on trips, clubs etc.\n\nFinally, the thing I am most grateful for was the preparation for secondary. It is an obscenly hard thing to do well, when everyone goes to different schools with different attitudes to everything, but they cover everything probably more than that, and has made my first 2 years of secondary a lot simpler.\n\nI have no doubts based on what it was like when I left, and the signs I've seen around Beckington and Frome, that it is at the top level still, in quality and emotional reception. Thanks for the experience.","languageCode":"en"},"originalText":{"text":"It's been almost 2 years since I left Springmead.
