"Excellent School - Happy Children!"

I'm so impressed with New Silksworth Academy. My child has blossomed since joining Year 3. The staff are friendly and approachable, and the facilities are fantastic. I've seen the children's confidence grow and they have a great sense of belonging. The values of the school, such as being ambitious and collaborative, really shine through in everything they do.

"A Great School with a Real Family Feel!"

We've been at New Silksworth Academy for 5 years now and have had a great experience. The staff are friendly and caring, and the facilities are excellent. My child has had lots of opportunities to develop their interests and talents, and the values of the school have really resonated with them. We feel like part of the school family and will miss it when we move on.

"Mixed Experience So Far..."

We've only been at New Silksworth Academy for a short time, but it's been a bit of a mixed bag. The staff are nice and the facilities are good, but my child is still getting used to the routine and it's taking a while for them to settle in. I'm hoping that as they get older they'll really thrive here. Fingers crossed!
