"Our amazing journey at Peacehaven Heights"
I just wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude to the entire staff at Peacehaven Heights Academy. From the moment our child joined in Reception, we've felt welcomed and supported every step of the way. The facilities are fantastic, the teachers are passionate and dedicated, and the values of STEP (Passion, Urgency, Positivity, Aspiration, Commitment to Anti-Racism) are truly at the heart of everything they do. We've seen our child thrive and grow in confidence, and we couldn't be prouder!

"A good experience, but some areas for improvement"
We had a positive experience at Peacehaven Heights Academy, but there were a few areas where we felt the school could improve. The teachers were generally supportive and enthusiastic, but we felt that the communication with parents could be better. The facilities were good, but we did experience some issues with the catering. Our child grew and developed well, but we did feel that some of the values and programs (such as the STEP values) were not consistently implemented throughout the school.
