"A Wonderful Learning Experience!"

My child has thrived at Kentmere Academy, especially with the free breakfast club which gives me peace of mind while I get ready for work. The facilities are impressive and the teaching staff are very approachable. I highly recommend this school!

"A Great Place to Learn!"

Kentmere Academy has exceeded our expectations. The after-school enrichment clubs are a great bonus as they encourage my child to try new things. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that the school could improve on communication with parents about upcoming events.

"A True Community School"

I have many fond memories of my child's time at Kentmere Academy. The school's values of Help, Aim high and Believe, Purposeful thinking, and Personal reflection for success really shone through in the way the teachers supported my child's development. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a nurturing environment.
