Parent survey feedback, autumn 2024

"We think Elms Academy is a superb school. Great leadership from the top, wonderful teachers and terrific SEN support. It seems very well run to us and very collaborative to parents. We also appreciate the 'merit postcards' that our son receives! Our son has ASD so we have been particularly grateful for the fantastic SEN support available at the school. We have always felt so welcome and supported by the school and it's a source of ongoing pleasure to us that our son is so happy there and is doing well. I think it's an outstanding school and feel all the staff do a wonderful job."
