## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A Happy and Supportive Environment: We have been really happy with Underwood West Academy. The staff are friendly and supportive, and the curriculum is engaging and well-structured. My child loves Forest School and the outdoor activities. We feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful school. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — An Excellent Learning Experience: My daughter has thrived at Underwood West Academy. The teaching staff are passionate and dedicated, and the facilities are excellent. The emphasis on Community, Knowledge, and Emotional Intelligence is exactly what we were looking for in a school. We couldn't be happier! *(Feb 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some positives and areas for improvement: We moved away from the area before our child finished Year 5, but we were generally happy with Underwood West Academy. The teachers were knowledgeable and the values-based approach was great. However, we felt that the school could improve its communication with parents and the homework load was sometimes too high. Overall, it was a good school, but not perfect. *(Aug 2020)*
