"Great school with plenty of opportunities"

My child has settled in well at City of London Academy Southwark and is enjoying the extracurricular activities. The principal's welcome was very informative and I like the focus on developing emotional intelligence. However, I wish there were more parent-teacher conferences.

"A great experience for my child"

I have a child who graduated from City of London Academy Southwark a few years ago and they had an amazing time. The school's focus on the Exploration of Life really helped them develop a sense of purpose and the sixth form was fantastic. I'm so proud of the person they've become!

"Bromley college"

The teachers are amazing and the staff are kind. There are a range of different departments you can email if you need help. The courses are great and I'm enjoying mine! The only negative I have is the students. They are rude and often block the hallways.
