## Recent parent reviews

- **3/5** — Montgomery: It's quite a nice place to be in but there always seems to be something pupils are genuinely concerned about but the staff ignore. Also despite saying they are amazing at anti bullying all they do is ask them to appoligize without contacting parents unless you report it repeatedly. The food is mostly good, classes are alright as most teachers are amazing but a few can permanently ruin a subject. *(Apr 2023)*
- **3/5** — Idk maybe monty academy get better with students stress: It’s alright they are great at handling bullying and mental health ect it’s just they aren’t great with handling our stress during and out of school such with homework. *(Oct 2022)*
- **1/5** — 1 star too many: My daughter is currently attending year 8. She started 2 weeks before summer holidays. Since day one, she has been bullied. The teachers do not take it seriously. All they care about is their paycheck at the end of the week. All staff are ignorant. Receptionist says school will phone you back but never have. Impossible to speak to headmaster. Probably in his office eating, drinking alcohol and smoking weed. It wouldn't surprise me. They do tell you one joke though, when the parents get shown aro… *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent school with a caring community: We've been with Montgomery Academy for 2 years now and I'm so impressed with the school's commitment to creating a positive and supportive environment. The teachers are wonderful and really care about their students. My daughter loves attending and says she feels 'safe and happy' which is music to my ears. I would highly recommend this school to anyone. *(Sep 2022)*

- **5/5** — Great school with lots of opportunities: We've been with Montgomery Academy for 4 years now and I'm really pleased with the progress our children have made. The school offers a lot of extracurricular activities and sports that my kids love, and the teachers are always willing to help. I think the SMART values are a great way to teach the children life skills. My only criticism is that the school could improve on some of the facilities, but overall it's a great school. *(Feb 2020)*
