"From the outset, nothing was too much trouble and all the staff made us feel so welcome. It was more like being part of your school rather than just visitors.

Jazmin, Year 7
"It was so good of you to bring your young people and to encourage them to take part in the Remembrance Service. It makes such a difference when the veterans see young people attending and being interested; it makes them feel that what they've been through is appreciated by the next generation. I hope that you will have the opportunity to explain to the young people who were present at the service that the fact that they came is greatly valued.”
Joan Seed, Chair of Churches Together in Eccles
“The academy offers a lot of opportunities to boost your confidence.”
