## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Excellent Support for SEND: We were worried about our child's SEND needs, but Sharples School has been absolutely fantastic in providing the right support. The Pastoral Team are so caring and knowledgeable, and we feel confident that our child is in the best possible hands. *(Mar 2023)*
- **3/5** — Mixed Experience: We've had a bit of a mixed experience at Sharples School, to be honest. The facilities are great, and the teachers are mostly brilliant, but our child's Progress Manager has been a bit inconsistent, and we've had to chase up issues a few times. *(Dec 2022)*
- **5/5** — Fantastic School and Facilities!: We love Sharples School! The teachers are great, and the facilities are second to none - the new classroom block is amazing, and our child loves the swimming pool. The values of the school really shine through, and we feel so lucky to have chosen it for our kids. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Our Child Thrived at Sharples: Our son was at Sharples from Year 7 to 11, and we couldn't be happier with the education and experiences he had. The Sharples Baccalaureate was a great programme, and the Duke of Edinburgh award he achieved was a real confidence-booster. *(Jun 2021)*
