"Great Sixth Form Experience"

Our son is really enjoying his time in the sixth form at Darrick Wood. The teachers are knowledgeable and supportive, and the resources are top-notch. We appreciate the emphasis on ownership and challenge - it's helping our son to develop a sense of independence and responsibility. The only thing that would be nice is more extracurricular activities for older students.

"Great School, But Could Improve"

We were really pleased with the education our child received at Darrick Wood. The teachers were knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and the facilities were excellent. However, we felt that the school could do more to support parents - especially when it came to communication and parent-teacher meetings. We would have liked more opportunities for parents to get involved in school life.
