- **4/5** — Excellent Education: As a former parent, I can confidently say that Northampton School for Boys provided my son with an excellent education. The teachers were always available to offer support and guidance, and the school's focus on extracurricular activities helped him develop valuable skills outside of the classroom. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the school could improve its communication with parents, especially during the transfer process. *(May 2023)*
