"Excellent school, wonderful staff!"

I am so grateful to have my child at Parkside Academy. The facilities are great, the teachers are kind and supportive, and the extra-curricular activities are plentiful. My child has grown in confidence and love of learning since starting here.

"Parkside has been a great choice for us"

My son has settled in really well at Parkside Academy and is enjoying his classes. The school's values of kindness, respect and responsibility really align with our own family values. We've also been impressed with the lunch menu and the opportunities for outdoor learning.

"Some areas for improvement, but overall a good school"

We had a generally positive experience at Parkside Academy, but found the communication between teachers and parents to be a bit patchy at times. The facilities are great and the extra-curricular activities are well organised. I do wish the school would do more to encourage parental involvement.
