"Wonderful school, wonderful staff!"

Frank Wise School has been a game changer for our child. The hydrotherapy pool and sensory rooms have made such a huge difference to their confidence and happiness. The staff are friendly, caring and dedicated to their work.

"A bit of a mixed bag"

We've had a bit of a mixed experience at Frank Wise. On the one hand, the school's focus on individualised learning has been brilliant for our child. However, we have struggled with communication at times and wish the school would keep us better updated on developments.

"A truly special place"

Our child attended Frank Wise from nursery to year 6 and we can't speak highly enough of the school. The staff are like a second family and the school's commitment to inclusion and diversity is second to none. We're so grateful for the experience our child had.
