## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A School That Truly Cares: Woldgate has exceeded our expectations in every way. The staff are friendly and supportive, the facilities are excellent and the values they instill in the children are truly admirable. My daughter has thrived here and I couldn't be prouder. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — An Outstanding Education: My son has only just started at Woldgate, but we've been blown away by the school's commitment to individualised learning and the wealth of extracurricular activities on offer. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the staff are passionate about what they do. *(Jan 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Positive Experience: My son attended Woldgate from Year 7 to Year 13 and had a great time. The school's focus on academic achievement and personal growth was fantastic, and the facilities were always well-maintained. However, I do think that the school could improve its communication with parents - sometimes we felt in the dark about what was going on. *(Jun 2021)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Feelings: We've had mixed experiences at Woldgate. The school's commitment to its values and the quality of teaching are both excellent, but we've had some issues with bullying and the school's handling of it. Overall, we're happy with the school but there's definitely room for improvement. *(Mar 2020)*
