## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A wonderful school community!: My child has been at Willow Green Academy for a year now, and I'm so impressed with the supportive and inclusive environment. The Forest School program has really helped them develop their confidence and love for nature. The staff are always approachable and keep us well-informed about school events. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent education and values: We've had a fantastic experience at Willow Green Academy. The school's ASPIRE ethos is really inspiring, and I love how they encourage the children to take responsibility and be independent. My child is thriving academically and socially, and we're so grateful for the wonderful teachers and facilities. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some positives but room for improvement: We left Willow Green Academy after a few years, but I still have mixed feelings about the school. On the one hand, the staff were always friendly and willing to listen, and the curriculum was broad and engaging. However, I felt that the school could do more to address bullying issues and provide additional support for children with special needs. *(Mar 2022)*
