## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Good, but room for improvement: While my son is generally happy at Rockwood Academy, we've experienced some communication breakdowns between teachers and parents. The school's attendance procedures and Ofsted feedback are also areas where they could improve. However, we appreciate their commitment to parent engagement and the opportunities they provide for students. *(May 2023)*
- **5/5** — Rockwood Academy exceeds our expectations!: My daughter has been at Rockwood Academy for a year now, and we're thoroughly impressed with the staff, facilities and values they instill in the children. The Connect parent workshops have been especially helpful in building stronger links between home and school. We feel confident our daughter is receiving an excellent education. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — A great school that supports every child: Our son has moved on to secondary school, but we still keep in touch with the staff at Rockwood Academy, who went above and beyond to support him during his time there. We appreciate their focus on emotional regulation and the various programs they offer to cater to different learning needs. *(Sep 2022)*
