## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Fantastic School Experience: My child loves going to Thirsk School. The Duke of Edinburgh program has really helped build their confidence and the teaching staff are always supportive. The school's values of inclusivity and respect really shine through in the way the students interact with each other. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some Positives and Negatives: We've been impressed with the school's efforts on mental health and the support they offer. However, we've found the homework load to be a bit excessive at times. Overall, it's a good school but could do with a bit more balance. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Great Education: My son attended Thirsk School from year 7-11 and had a great experience. The school's emphasis on knowledge and teaching really paid off in his exam results. The facilities are also excellent, especially the sports centre. *(Feb 2021)*
