## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Great start to secondary school: Our child has only been at Ark Acton for a few months, but we've been impressed by the welcome they've received and the support they're getting in class. The school's values of curiosity, empathy, and resilience are really evident in the ways they're helping our child settle in and make friends. We're looking forward to seeing how they continue to grow and thrive. *(Jan 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent experience so far!: My child has been at Ark Acton for two years and we've been blown away by the school's commitment to providing a well-rounded education. The teachers are passionate and dedicated, and the facilities are top-notch. We're particularly grateful for the specialist resource provision for children with SLCN - it's made a huge difference to our child's confidence and progress. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — A good but not perfect experience: We had our child at Ark Acton for three years and had some ups and downs. On the plus side, the school's pastoral support was excellent and our child got a lot out of the extracurricular activities. However, we sometimes felt that the teaching wasn't as strong as it could have been, and the school's communication with parents could be better. Overall, it was a good experience, but we're not sure we'd choose it again if we had the option. *(Sep 2021)*
