At times, it was difficult to get in touch with the teachers or get updates on our son's progress. However, the school has a great atmosphere and a strong focus on values. I've seen how well my child has developed, and for that, I'm grateful. *(May 2021)* ## Other schools in Blackpool - [St George's School A Church of England Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/blackpool/st-georges-school-a-church-of-england-academy-15679) — 1.6/5 (20 reviews) - [Highfield Leadership Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/blackpool/highfield-leadership-academy-17078) — 2.1/5 (15 reviews) - [St Mary's Catholic Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/blackpool/st-marys-catholic-academy-16083) — 1.9/5 (14 reviews) - [Blackpool Aspire Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/blackpool/blackpool-aspire-academy-15986) — 2.4/5 (13 reviews) - [Unity Academy Blackpool](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/blackpool/unity-academy-blackpool-14781) — 2.0/5 (13 reviews) - [Montgomery Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/blackpool/montgomery-academy-13409) — 3.5/5 (11 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
