## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent School Experience: I've been really impressed with the way Birley Spa Primary Academy has supported my child's learning and personal growth. The weekly yoga sessions have been a highlight for my child and I love how the school values creativity and teamwork. The facilities are excellent and the staff are always friendly and approachable. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Wonderful Nursery Experience: I've been blown away by the nursery at Birley Spa Primary Academy. The staff are so caring and engaging, and the facilities are really well equipped. My child loves the structured learning experiences and is really thriving. I've already recommended the nursery to friends and family! *(Mar 2022)*
- **4/5** — Great School with Room for Improvement: My child attended Birley Spa Primary Academy for 3 years and had a great experience overall. The school's emphasis on reading and literacy has really paid off and my child is now a confident reader. However, I did find the lunchtime provision to be a bit limited and would have liked to see more options for special diets. *(Jun 2021)*
