Kind Words & Testimonials...

We are so pleased we chose the Ongar Academy for both of our children. Your staff continue to support, encourage and guide the students in such a positive and approachable way, and it really shows in events like this. (Year 9 Options Evening) Parent Email. 

 

I just wanted to congratulate and thank you and your staff for a very helpful and informative Options event. Year 9 Parent Email.
 I can’t believe the difference this school has made to my daughter. She was at shenfield with 24% attendance because she hated it there so much, she’s now at 97% here and absolutely loves it. I wish I’d have put her here from year 7 instead of waiting until she was halfway through year 10. Parental FB Post
The School has been great especially since Mr Sands became our headteacher – we don’t have to have supply teachers anymore! This means we get to learn without disruption. I have lots of help and advice for me to think about my GCSE options and all of my teachers have helped me. Everyone at 'The Ongar Academy' is so nice. I get the chance to help out with our Primary School visitors by showing them around. - Year 8 Student.
