"A Great Experience So Far"

Our daughter has been at Barnsley Academy for a year now, and we're really pleased with her progress. The teachers are supportive, and the Pupil Charter is a great way to encourage good behaviour and values. We're looking forward to seeing her continue to thrive here.

"Fantastic Education with Character at Barnsley Academy"

We're absolutely delighted with the progress our son has made since joining Barnsley Academy. The Education with Character program has really resonated with him, and he's become more confident and curious. The school's facilities are also fantastic, with plenty of opportunities for extracurricular activities.

"Room for Improvement"

While our son has been happy at Barnsley Academy, we've noticed some inconsistency in the quality of teaching and resources. The Music in Secondary Schools Trust program has been a highlight, but we feel there's more the school could do to engage parents and involve them in the learning process.

"A Well-Rounded Education"

We have fond memories of our time at Barnsley Academy, where our children received a well-rounded education that prepared them for their future. The Enrichment Program was particularly effective in developing their interests and talents outside of the classroom.
