"Lovely school with a personal touch"

We've been impressed with the way the teachers know and care for each child at Meadowdale Academy. My daughter is thriving in her class and has made many friends. The staff are always available to talk to and the sense of community is wonderful.

"A good school with some room for improvement"

My child is doing well at Meadowdale Academy, but I do wish they would provide more opportunities for extracurricular activities. The staff are generally supportive, but sometimes seem a bit overwhelmed. Overall, a good school, but could be better.

"Hated it"

This school cares a lot more about the way they look to the outside world rather than the students in their school. When I was there absolutely nothing was done about bullying, people would self harm in the school yard and a couple of the teachers cared much more about fitting in with the popular kids than everyone else’s wellbeing.
