"Outstanding teachers and facilities"

My son has been at Portland Spencer Academy for 3 years now and I can truly say it's been an incredible experience. The teachers are exceptional, always going above and beyond to ensure the children understand the material and have fun while doing it. The facilities are top-notch, with plenty of opportunities for the children to engage in extracurricular activities. I'm so grateful to have found such a wonderful school.

"Excellent education with kindness and creativity at its core"

My daughter attended Portland Spencer Academy from Reception to Year 6, and I couldn't be prouder of the person she's become. The school's values of kindness and creativity really shone through in the way the teachers supported her and encouraged her to try new things. The school's commitment to providing an outstanding education is evident in the wonderful results they achieve, and I feel so lucky to have given my child the opportunity to learn there.

"Good but room for improvement"

My child has been at Portland Spencer Academy for a year now, and while I've been impressed with the school's commitment to providing a well-rounded education, I do think there's room for improvement in terms of communication with parents. Sometimes it feels like information is shared a bit too late, and I've had to chase up teachers and staff to get answers to questions. That being said, the teachers are lovely and the facilities are great, and I'm hoping that with a bit more time, the school will iron out these issues.
