## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Inspirational education: My child is thriving at Elstree Screen Arts Academy. The facilities are excellent and the staff are passionate about their subject areas. They've really bought into the academy's values of Standing Out for cultural and applied education; relational and restorative approaches to learning, and I've seen a huge improvement in my child's confidence and creativity. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed feelings: We're still getting used to the different structure of the school day, but our child is enjoying the content of their courses and the teachers are all very supportive. The partnership with CAMHS Digital Lab is really interesting and we're looking forward to hearing more about it. However, we're still not entirely convinced about the breakfast service and the parking arrangements are a bit chaotic at times. *(Sep 2021)*
- **5/5** — Life-changing experience for our child: My child attended Elstree Screen Arts Academy a few years ago and it was a truly life-changing experience for them. The academy's focus on the film and TV industry is unique and the opportunities they provided our child were invaluable. We've seen them go on to achieve great things in their chosen career and we attribute much of that to the skills and experience they gained whilst at ESA. *(Mar 2020)*
