## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent School with Great Values: I've been impressed with Whalley Range 11-18 High School since day one. The staff are friendly and supportive, and the school's commitment to diversity and inclusion is really evident. My daughter has thrived in the school's caring environment and I'm grateful for the opportunities she's had through their extra-curricular programs. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — A School that Truly Cares: We were a family that moved to a different area and my child went to a different school, but I still keep in touch with the staff at Whalley Range 11-18 High School. Their commitment to the well-being of their students is second to none and it shows in the way they support parents too. If we were still living in the area, I'd have no hesitation in sending my child back to that wonderful school. *(Mar 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good School with Some Room for Improvement: We've had a mostly positive experience at Whalley Range 11-18 High School. The school's facilities are great, and the teachers are knowledgeable and enthusiastic. However, I feel that the school could do more to engage with parents and keep us informed about what's going on. Overall, I'd recommend the school to others, but with some caveats. *(Jun 2021)*
