"Excellent Supportive Community"

We've been at Vale of York Academy for three years now and I couldn't be happier with the support and care provided to our son. The focus on kindness, respect, and teamwork has been amazing to see, and the facilities are first-rate. Highly recommend!

"Great School - Minor Room for Improvement"

Our son has settled in really well to Year 7 at Vale of York. The teachers are fantastic, and the parent-teacher communication is top-notch. The only thing I'd like to see is more extracurricular activities for older students.

"Best Decision We Ever Made"

We moved our daughter to Vale of York from a different school, and it's been the best decision we ever made. The staff are so kind and welcoming, and the curriculum is excellent. We love the emphasis on kindness and teamwork!

"Good Experience - Some Growing Pains"

Our son went to Vale of York for three years before moving on. We had a good experience overall, but there were some issues with communication and organization. Still, the staff are lovely, and the values of kindness and respect are really important.
