## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Wonderful school with a caring community: We've been with Northfield St Nicholas Primary Academy for three years now, and it's been a fantastic experience. The school's values of learning, leadership, enjoyment, inclusion, inspiration, responsibility, and integrity really shine through in the way the teachers and staff treat the children. My son has grown so much as a person, and I'm grateful for the support from the school. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent education and wonderful facilities: We moved out of the area last year, but our children still speak fondly of their time at Northfield St Nicholas Primary Academy. The school's facilities are top-notch, and the teachers were always very supportive. The 'Thrive' program was particularly effective in helping my children manage their emotions and develop their self-esteem. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed feelings about our experience: We've had a bit of a mixed experience with Northfield St Nicholas Primary Academy. On the one hand, the school has a wonderful community feel, and the teachers are always willing to listen. On the other hand, I feel that the school could do more to support children who are struggling academically. My daughter has had some difficulties with reading, but we haven't seen much in the way of extra support. *(Nov 2021)*
