Parental Comments

My son started at Ballard in 2004 in the Prep School and we think Ballard is fantastic in everything you offer. Our son is very happy and we feel that for the first time the teachers really know our son unlike the other school he went to where he was just a child in a class of 33. Ballard gives children opportunity and brings the best out in the children. One of the things I love about Ballard is the relationship teachers have with the children. They laugh together and make the children’s classes enjoyable and fun. (Parents of an 8 year old boy)

Since our child started at Ballard he has said he enjoys it and we are overjoyed with all aspects to date. (Parents of a 4 year old boy)

Our daughter started at Ballard in Year 7. She was lacking in self-confidence. However, we have noticed a great improvement in her confidence and maturity and whilst we put this down partly to age we also feel that Ballard has played a very important part in bringing out her personality outside of the home environment.

The friendliness of all at the school is its best asset. Teachers are approachable and children very happy. (Parents of an 11 year old girl)

I am pleased with the independence and responsibility my children get from being at Ballard. I have been delighted with the ethos and education and on the only occasion I have had to raise an issue, the teachers involved pulled out all the stops to ensure my eldest child was happy at school.

We are very pleased with our son’s progress. In particular we are impressed with the staff’s awareness of the children’s happiness / problems and their willingness to help solve problems quickly, effectively and with tact and acre. We have no hesitation in recommending the school to anyone. (Parents of a 14 year old boy)
