## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent Support for Special Needs: My son has been at Catcote Academy for a few years now and I've been impressed by the level of support he's received. The school's OPAL program has been particularly beneficial, helping him develop his social skills and build confidence. The staff are always quick to respond to any concerns I have and the school's focus on sensory processing and OT support is amazing. *(Jun 2022)*
- **5/5** — Amazing Facilities and Staff: Catcote Academy has exceeded our expectations in every way. The STEPS program has been a game-changer for my child, providing them with the skills and qualifications they need to succeed in the workforce. The school's facilities are also fantastic, with plenty of opportunities for students to participate in extracurricular activities. The staff are dedicated and caring, always putting the needs of the students first. *(May 2022)*
- **4/5** — Very Positive Experience: We've been at Catcote Academy for a few years now and I've been really pleased with the progress my child has made. The school's focus on behaviour and attendance has been particularly helpful, as has the support for students with SEN. However, I do wish the school would communicate more clearly with parents - sometimes I feel like we're left in the dark about what's going on. *(Mar 2022)*
- **4/5** — Excellent Support and Guidance: We left Catcote Academy last year, but I still highly recommend the school to anyone considering it. The staff are incredibly supportive and provide excellent guidance to parents. The school's focus on careers and work-related learning is also fantastic, helping students develop the skills they need to succeed in the workplace. My child was a bit of a tricky student, but the school worked with us to find a solution that met their needs. *(Dec 2021)*
