## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent all round experience: My son has been attending Earlscliffe for a year now and we can't be happier with the school. The facilities are great, the staff are friendly and supportive, and the values of the school really align with our own. The basketball academy is particularly excellent and has helped my son to improve his game significantly. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed feelings about the school: We were initially drawn to Earlscliffe because of its reputation for academic excellence and its international community. While our son loves the school and has made some great friends, we have been a bit disappointed with the level of support he has received from his tutors. The facilities are great, but we feel that the school could do more to help students with their pastoral care. *(Feb 2021)*
- **5/5** — Life-changing experience for our daughter: Earlscliffe was a fantastic choice for our daughter who attended the summer course in 2019. She loved the atmosphere, the teachers, and the activities on offer. The experience really helped her to build her confidence and improve her English skills. We were so impressed that we decided to send her back the following year! *(Jul 2020)*
