"Outstanding education and values"

We moved our child to Brinsworth Academy a year ago, and it's been one of the best decisions we've ever made. The academy's values of excellence, resilience, and kindness really shine through in the way the staff and teachers support the students. Our child has thrived in this environment and we're grateful for the outstanding education they've received.

"Mixed feelings about the academy"

I've had mixed feelings about Brinsworth Academy since my child started. On the one hand, the teachers are friendly and supportive, and the facilities are excellent. However, I've noticed that the academy can be a bit disorganized at times, and the communication with parents could be better. I'm still undecided about whether I'd recommend the academy to others.
