## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A Home Away From Home: I've been blown away by the sense of community at Frome Vale Academy. My child loves the facilities and the teachers are always so supportive. The values of being a 'Frome Vale Citizen' really resonate with me and I love how they promote kindness, respect and safety. We feel so lucky to be a part of the FVA family! *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some Good, Some Room for Improvement: We've been at Frome Vale Academy for a year now and while there are some things I really like, there are also some areas that could be improved. The teachers are generally great, but sometimes the communication between school and parents could be better. The facilities are excellent, but I've had some issues with the parent/teacher evenings. Overall, it's a good school, but needs a bit of tweaking to reach its full potential. *(Feb 2022)*
- **5/5** — Exceptional Education: As a former parent of two children who attended Frome Vale Academy, I can confidently say that it's an outstanding school. The teachers are dedicated, the facilities are excellent and the values of the school are truly inspiring. My children thrived at FVA and I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone searching for a great education. *(Jun 2021)*
