"Mixed Feelings"

We've had a mixed experience at Newcastle Academy. On the one hand, the extracurricular activities and sports teams are fantastic, and my child has made some great friends. However, the homework can be overwhelming at times, and we've had some issues with communication between teachers and parents.

We sent our child to Newcastle Academy for a few years and were blown away by the quality of education they received. The values of respect, responsibility, and kindness are deeply ingrained, and our child is now a confident and compassionate person. Highly recommend!
