"Fantastic School Experience"

My son has been attending Harborne Academy for 3 years now and we have been thoroughly impressed. The facilities are great, especially the new sports hall and 3G pitch. The staff are always so supportive and enthusiastic. The 'Arts Week' and 'STEM Fortnight' events have been a highlight for us!

"Mixed Experience"

We had a mixed experience at Harborne Academy. My son enjoyed the extracurricular activities, especially the pottery lessons, but the teaching was sometimes inconsistent. The facilities are great, but we felt that the school could have done more to support students with SEN needs. Overall, it was an okay experience.
