## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — Worst 5 years of my life: Teachers will get involved in your personal life, manipulate you, and make you feel inferior. Yavneh college may give you good grades and academic success but it’s not worth it, since it’s at the cost of your own mental wellbeing. Over the 5 years there from year 7-11, I learnt a lot about myself and the people i would like/not like to surround myself with. This is an orthodox jewish school but in another words is completely misogynistic and disregards any vital topics that pupils should be taug… *(Oct 2022)*
- **5/5** — Exceptional School with a Heart of Gold: Yavneh College has exceeded our expectations in every way. The staff, facilities and programs are all top-notch, but what truly sets them apart is their commitment to kindness and compassion. Our child has thrived here and we couldn't be happier. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Education, Wonderful Community: We've been impressed by the academic rigor at Yavneh College, but it's the values and sense of community that have truly made our child's experience special. The school's commitment to British values, SMSC and SEND support has given our child the confidence to succeed. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Kindness and Opportunity Abound at Yavneh: Yavneh College has taught our child so much more than just academics - they've instilled a sense of kindness, empathy and responsibility. The school's focus on SEND support has been particularly helpful in supporting our child's unique needs. *(Mar 2022)*
- **3/5** — A Bit Disappointed, But Still a Great School: We had a great experience at Yavneh College, but we were a bit let down by the Chromebook scheme. The devices themselves were fine, but the process for getting them repaired was a bit clunky. That said, the school's values, facilities and community are all still top-notch. *(Jan 2022)*
