My child has been at Wistaston Academy for 6 years and has thrived in every way. The teaching staff are passionate, knowledgeable and supportive, and the facilities are top-notch. The school's emphasis on wellbeing, reading and maths has really paid off for my child's confidence and academic achievement.

We've been part of the Wistaston Academy community for 3 years now, and we couldn't be happier. The school's values of excellence, authenticity, excitement and belonging really shine through in everyday life. The staff are approachable, supportive and dedicated, and the other parents are friendly and welcoming.

"Some Ups and Downs"

We had a mixed experience at Wistaston Academy for our child, who attended from Year 2 to Year 5. The teaching staff were generally good, but there were a few classes where the teacher didn't quite click with our child. The facilities are excellent, but we felt that the school could do more to engage with parents and involve them in decisions.
