## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Fantastic experience so far!: We moved to the area last year and I've been impressed with the communication from the school and the facilities they have. The values they promote, such as politeness and respect, are really important to us as a family. My child is thriving at Leigh Academy Bexley and I'd highly recommend it. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent teaching and supportive staff: Both my children have been at Leigh Academy Bexley for a few years now and I've been consistently impressed with the teaching and the support they receive. The staff are always available to chat and offer help when needed. I've also been impressed with the co-curricular activities on offer, my child has participated in the film production trip and loved it. *(Feb 2022)*
- **5/5** — Great school with a strong sense of community: We've been at Leigh Academy Bexley for a few years now and have really felt like part of the community. The school's values of kindness, ambition and resilience are really evident in the way the students and staff interact with each other. My child is making great progress and I'm confident they will achieve their goals. *(Dec 2021)*
- **4/5** — Good but some areas for improvement: My child graduated from Leigh Academy Bexley a few years ago and while I was generally happy with the education they received, I did feel that the pastoral support was sometimes lacking. The facilities are excellent and the teaching is good, but I think the school could do more to support students with special educational needs. *(Jun 2020)*
