## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Fantastic School for Our Daughter: We've been so impressed with Penryn College. The facilities are top-notch, especially the sports hall and the climbing wall. Our daughter has thrived in the supportive environment, and the emphasis on teamwork and cooperation has been a great fit for her. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some Great Things, But Room for Improvement: We've had a mixed experience so far at Penryn College. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the Christmas concert was fantastic. However, my child has struggled a bit with the workload, and I've found the communication from the school to be a bit patchy at times. Overall, it's been a decent start, but I'm hoping things will improve. *(Mar 2021)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Education and Opportunities: I have two children who attended Penryn College, and I can honestly say it's an amazing school. The teachers are passionate and dedicated, and the range of extracurricular activities is impressive. My kids have gone on to do well at university, and I credit Penryn College for giving them the confidence and skills they needed. *(Jun 2020)*
