## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Mixed feelings about the school: We chose Bulwell Academy for its academic reputation, but we've had some mixed experiences. Some of the teachers are excellent, while others seem a bit disorganised. The school also seems to be cutting back on some of its extracurricular activities, which is disappointing. *(Jan 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent choice for our son: We're so glad we chose The Bulwell Academy for our son. The school's values of Aspire, Work hard and Be kind really shine through in the teachers and staff we've met. We love the facilities, especially the new sports hall! *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Supportive environment: Our daughter has really thrived at Bulwell Academy. The teachers are always available to help and the school's focus on academic success is exactly what we wanted for her. We've also been impressed with the opportunities for extracurricular activities. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Helpful transition to secondary school: My son joined Bulwell Academy in Year 7 and we found the transition process to be really smooth. The admissions team were helpful and the school's welcome events were a great way to meet other parents and students. Our son has settled in well and we're happy with the education he's receiving. *(Mar 2022)*
