"Excellent support for our child's transition to Post-16"

As a former parent, I wanted to praise the staff at Fountains High School for their excellent support during our child's transition to Post-16. The school's values of kindness, wisdom, and bravery really shine through in the way they care for their students. My child is thriving in the college setting and we are so grateful to have had such a positive experience at Fountains.

"Some areas for improvement"

We have mixed feelings about our experience at Fountains High School. The staff are generally lovely and the facilities are good. However, we feel that the school sometimes struggles to manage certain behaviors and there could be more support for parents. Our child is doing okay, but we are hoping for a smoother transition to Post-16.
