"Exceptional Education and Care"

We've been blown away by the academic excellence and individual care our daughter has received at Downside. The Benedictine values are truly living, breathing aspects of the school's culture, and the facilities are outstanding. We're so grateful to be part of the Downside community.

"Mixed Experience"

We've had a mixed experience at Downside. Our daughter is happy and thriving in many areas, but we've experienced some communication breakdowns with certain teachers. The facilities and extracurricular programs are excellent, but we feel that more could be done to support struggling students. Overall, it's been an okay experience, but we're not certain if it's the right fit for our child.

"Excellent Preparation for Life"

Both my children attended Downside and I couldn't be happier with the education and life skills they acquired. The school's emphasis on character development, leadership, and community service has helped them become confident, compassionate young adults. We'll always be grateful for our time at Downside.
