- **5/5** — A Home Away from Home: The team at Brymore have been supportive and welcoming, and we've enjoyed getting involved in the school community. The emphasis on hard work, manners, and respect is exactly what we want for our son, and we've seen these values in action during our visits. *(Jun 2023)*
- **5/5** — Outstanding Education and Experience: We were blown away by the facilities and the emphasis on traditional values at Brymore Academy. Our son has thrived in the boarding environment and we've seen significant academic progress. The farm and workshops are a unique selling point that sets Brymore apart from other schools. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Feelings: We had a positive experience at Brymore, but we did struggle with communication with the school at times. The facilities are excellent and our son enjoyed the practical aspects of the curriculum. However, we would have liked to see more attention paid to pastoral care. *(Feb 2021)*
