"Some Great Aspects, But Room for Improvement"

We've had a mixed experience at Havant Academy. Some of the teachers are excellent and our child has had some great experiences, like the Silent Disco for good attendance. However, we've also had some issues with communication from the school and the homework can be a bit much at times.
