"Excellent Support for My Son"

We've been thoroughly impressed with the Ruth Gorse Academy. Our son has flourished in his time there, particularly with the maths department. The teachers are always available to offer support and guidance.

"A Good but Imperfect School"

My daughter has been attending the Ruth Gorse Academy for two years now, and overall, we're pleased with her experience. The staff are friendly and the facilities are decent, but I do feel that the school could work on providing more extracurricular activities for the students.
