I hosted and managed content for a primary school using WordPress, hosted by TSO Host. The website has been online for 7 years up to this time last year when it was hacked into and injected with lots of malwares, Trojan virus, etc. rendering the website offline. It was probably my fault because I failed to update WP add ons, and WP security updates on time -- something in which you have to do from time to time frequently, whenever it (they) become available. Also, be mindful which plugins you install and there are bots and/or crawlers out there targeting WP plugins and exploiting their security holes.
It was too late for me because our hosting provider could not provide backup of the site of when it was in its last 'clean' state. We lost 9 months of hosting fees, and ended up with a website that can no longer be used.
I cannot say much about others -- but I'd encourage you to look elsewhere and consider other platforms like SquareSpace, Wix, etc. Whatever you do, remember to keep security in mind.
