What people say about Fakenham

Just wanted to say a big thank you to all the staff for nurturing and helping my child to achieve her potential at school. In the last year everything the school has done has gone above and beyond to help these kids. Amazing staff who put 100% into their jobs and she is looking forward to 6th form at Fakenham.

Parent 1

We are flabbergasted at just how life has changed for our son since joining Fakenham Academy. We had grown accustomed to his life in his previous school and accepted this as the norm. However, in his short time at Fakenham Academy he has had a completely different experience and is flourishing as a result. He is enjoying school and thriving on the experience, his only regret is that this didn’t happen a few years ago. I would like to offer a whole hearted thank you to everyone involved with my son’s education at Fakenham Academy.
