## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent school with great values: I'm so impressed with Chellaston Academy. My child is in Year 9 and loves the school's emphasis on 'Integrity, Care and Excellence'. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the teachers are always supportive and available for help. The 'Question, Explore, Give and Succeed' philosophy really resonates with me, and I can see it making a positive impact on my child's life. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Wonderful school with a great community: My child left Chellaston Academy a few years ago, but I'm still in touch with many of the teachers and staff. The school has a wonderful community feel, and the parents are all very supportive of each other. I was particularly impressed with the school's approach to safeguarding and the procedures in place to ensure the children's well-being. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed feelings about the school: My child started at Chellaston Academy in Year 7, and we've had a mixed experience so far. On the one hand, the teachers are all very enthusiastic and passionate about their subjects, and the school's facilities are modern and well-maintained. On the other hand, I've found the communication with the school to be a bit patchy at times, and I wish they would send out more regular updates and progress reports. *(Mar 2022)*
