## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Best School Experience for My Child!: I am absolutely delighted with The Gateway Academy. From the moment our child started, we have seen an incredible improvement in their confidence and academic progress. The facilities are fantastic, and my child loves the sports facilities and playing in the school musical. The values of responsibility, resilience, compassion, and aspiration are truly ingrained in the school culture, and we are so proud to be a part of it. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some Positives, Some Negatives: We have had a mixed experience at The Gateway Academy. On the one hand, our child has thrived in the Grammar Band program, and the teacher is excellent. However, we have experienced some issues with communication from the school, and we feel that some of the pastoral care could be improved. Overall, we are trying to give the school the benefit of the doubt, but we hope to see some improvements in these areas. *(Mar 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Education for My Child: We chose The Gateway Academy for our child's education because of its excellent reputation, and we were not disappointed. The teachers are passionate and dedicated, and the school's emphasis on hard work and discipline really paid off for our child. We were thrilled to see them achieve a 9 in their maths GCSE, and we are so grateful for the education and opportunities that they received while at the school. *(Jul 2021)*
