Reviews

Quarry Lane has been a superb experience for my daughter

June 6, 2024

My daughter has been attending Quarry Lane for the past three years, and I couldn’t be happier with the education and support she has received. The teachers are not only knowledgeable but also genuinely care about the students’ well-being. The school offers a balanced mix of academics, sports, and extracurricular activities, which has helped my daughter grow into a well-rounded individual. The community is very welcoming, and the school fosters a sense of belonging. However, the pressure to excel can sometimes be overwhelming, but the support system in place helps manage it. Overall, Quarry Lane has been a transformative experience for my child, and I highly recommend it

Met my best friends at Quarry Lane

Quarry Lane is a great school. The teachers are amazing, and I’ve made so many friends here.

Disappointing Experience

April 14, 2024

Man, this school is such a letdown. I had high hopes for Quarry Lane, but the administration is poorly organized and shows favoritism. There was a lot of academic and cyberbullying, and the staff did nothing about it. The students who excelled academically did so because of outside help, not because of the school. It seems like the school’s reputation is built on the achievements of students who were already motivated and well-supported outside of school.
