## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Room for Improvement: While I've been pleased with the progress of my child at Elm Academy, I do feel that the school could do more to engage with parents. Communication can be a bit hit-and-miss and I've had to chase up on a few occasions. That being said, the teachers are dedicated and the facilities are top-notch. *(Nov 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent School Experience: I've been blown away by Elm Academy's commitment to providing a safe and supportive learning environment. The staff are genuinely caring and the facilities are excellent. My child is thriving and I couldn't be happier with their progress. *(Feb 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Well-rounded Education: My child attended Elm Academy a few years ago and I was impressed by the emphasis on developing the whole child. The EPIC values are truly embedded in the school's culture and my child benefited from the focus on enjoyment, potential, inclusive and communities. *(Sep 2021)*
