## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent values and pastoral care: The values and habits that TTA teaches are really impressive - our son has grown into a confident and polite young person. The pastoral care is also excellent and we feel so supported as parents. *(Jul 2023)*
- **4/5** — Our experiences at TTA: We had a good experience at TTA, the teachers were supportive and the school day was well-structured. However, I wish there was more focus on special educational needs - that's why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5. *(Apr 2023)*
- **5/5** — Thetford Academy - excellent choice for our family!: We made the right decision sending our daughter to TTA. She's excelled in the music program and we're so proud of her progress. The facilities and staff are top-notch and we can't recommend this school enough! *(Sep 2022)*
