"Best school ever!"

We've been so impressed with the facilities and activities at Holyhead Primary Academy! The 'Excite, Explore, Excel' values really shine through in everything they do. My child has made fantastic friends and is thriving in the reception class.

"Mixed feelings"

We've been happy with the school so far, but I do wish there were more opportunities for parent involvement. The Islamic Experience Exhibition was really interesting, and I've heard good things about the nursery. My child is doing well, but I'm not sure if it's the right fit for us long-term.

"Excellent education"

We moved from Holyhead Primary Academy a few years ago, but I still hear great things about the school. The drama and dance workshops with the Birmingham Hippodrome were a highlight for my child. I'm confident they're giving the kids a great start in life.
