"Good but room for improvement"

We've been pleased with the education our child has received at Samuel Whitbread Academy, but we feel that the school could do more to engage with parents. The facilities are excellent, but we've had some issues with the Sixth Form course selection process. Overall, it's a good school, but we think it has the potential to be even better.
