Past Pupils' Views

When our Y11 pupils leave The Pilgrim School we ask them to complete an Exit Survey. Below is just some of the valuable feedback we have received from these surveys.

In addition to this, on the other pages in this section are some of the wonderful cards and letters we are sent when these pupils move on. There are also some more extended pieces of writing which detail some of our past pupils experiences and have been shared with us since their departure.
