## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — A Great Place to Learn: I was a bit skeptical about sending my child to an alternative provision school, but Derby Pride Academy has exceeded my expectations. The facilities are excellent, and the staff are always willing to listen and help. My child has really benefited from the enrichment activities, such as the behind-the-scenes tour at Tesco and the visit to Morrisons Flowerworld. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — Outstanding School!: I am so grateful to have Derby Pride Academy for my son's education. The values of determination, pride, and ambition really shine through in everything they do. My child has transformed since joining the school, and I couldn't be prouder of the young person they are becoming. The staff are always supportive and go above and beyond to help their students succeed. *(Sep 2022)*
- **3/5** — Some Positive Experience: I had a mixed experience with Derby Pride Academy as a parent of one of their students. My child did make some progress while attending the school, but I felt that there were times when the staff could have been more proactive in supporting them. The football kit they provided for the students was a lovely touch, though! *(Nov 2021)*
