"Fantastic experience for our daughter!"

I have to say, we are thoroughly impressed with Walthamstow Academy. The facilities are brilliant, the teachers are supportive and the values they instill in the children are top-notch. Our daughter loves the sixth form open evening and we're excited to see her develop into a confident and ambitious young woman.

"Welcoming and inclusive atmosphere"

We were a bit worried about our child transitioning to secondary school, but Walthamstow Academy has been a fantastic choice. The parent partnership is great, and we appreciate the regular updates from the teachers. However, we think the school meals could be improved, and our child sometimes gets frustrated with the homework.

"Excellent education and supportive community"

We sent our children to Walthamstow Academy many years ago, and we couldn't be more proud of the people they've become. The education was top-notch, and the values of respect, determination, and confidence were instilled in them from a young age. We loved the super curricular activities and the opportunities for extracurricular involvement.
