"Mixed Experience with Good and Bad"

We've had a mixed experience at Darwen Vale High School, to be honest. Our daughter loves the extracurricular programs on offer, but we've had some issues with the teaching staff. The school's focus on behavior and discipline is good, but sometimes it feels a bit too strict. Overall, it's an okay school.

"Excellent School with Wonderful Values"

My daughter has been attending Darwen Vale High School for a year now, and we are thoroughly impressed with the values the school instills in the students. The 'no excuses' approach really works, and the students are incredibly courteous and respectful. We've also noticed a big improvement in her academic results.

"Great School with Exceptional Facilities"

My son graduated from Darwen Vale High School a few years ago, and we're still very happy with the education he received. The school's focus on entrepreneurship and life skills was really beneficial for him. The facilities are also excellent, with great sports facilities and a lovely courtyard.
