"Supportive and ambitious environment"

Our son is thriving in the Sixth Form and the teachers are always pushing him to achieve his best. The school's emphasis on character education and responsible citizenship is admirable and we feel it's really helping him grow into a confident and capable young person.

"Mixed experience"

We had a bit of a mixed experience at Wath Academy. On the one hand, our son loved his time there and the staff were always supportive. However, we felt that the school could improve in terms of communication and keeping parents informed about their children's progress.
