"A Home Away from Home"

We've been thrilled with our child's progress at Leycroft Academy. The staff have been incredibly supportive, and the school's focus on individual needs really shows. From the sensory room to the outdoor play area, our child has always felt safe and happy.

"Some Great Things, but Room for Improvement"

We've had a mixed experience at Leycroft Academy. On the one hand, the school's curriculum and extra-curricular activities have been excellent for our child. However, we've sometimes felt that communication with the teachers could be better. Overall, we're willing to stick with the school and see the positive changes they're committed to making.

"Exceptional Care and Education"

As a former parent, I can confidently say that Leycroft Academy exceeded our expectations in every way. The school's values of 'every child is unique' and 'positive effective outcomes' truly shine through in their approach to education. We'll always be grateful for the time our child spent there.
