"Mixed feelings"

We're still getting used to the Leigh Academy Tonbridge system, but overall we're pleased with the education our son is receiving. The International Baccalaureate Career-related Programme seems to be challenging him, and we like the emphasis on collaboration and problem-solving.

"A great all-round education"

Our son went to Leigh Academy Tonbridge from Year 7 to Year 13 and we were incredibly happy with his experience. The school's small size meant he was known and cared for, and the teachers were always available to support him. We'd definitely recommend it.
