The staff are kind and supportive, and the 'Friends of Maple Ridge' charity have organized some fantastic events. I'm impressed by how much they cater to children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder, and the 'low arousal environment' has really helped my child feel more comfortable. *(Sep 2022)* - **4/5** — Some Good Points, But Room for Improvement: My child is in Year 4 at Maple Ridge School and while they have had some good experiences, I feel that the school could do more to keep parents informed about what's happening. The community room is a great facility, but it would be nice to see more opportunities for parents to get involved with the school. Overall, it's been okay, but I'm not entirely convinced yet. *(Mar 2022)* - **5/5** — Outstanding Support for Children with ASD: My child attended Maple Ridge School for three years and we couldn't be happier with the support they received. The staff were all very knowledgeable about Autism Spectrum Disorder and the 'TEACH' approach really helped my child learn and develop. I would highly recommend this school to anyone with a child who has ASD. *(Jun 2020)* ## Other schools in Basingstoke - [The Vyne Community School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/basingstoke/the-vyne-community-school-6638) — 1.7/5 (18 reviews) - [Cranbourne](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/basingstoke/cranbourne-6633) — 1.6/5 (16 reviews) - [The Costello School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/basingstoke/the-costello-school-13662) — 1.8/5 (15 reviews) - [Bishop Challoner Catholic Secondary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/basingstoke/bishop-challoner-catholic-secondary-school-6651) — 1.9/5 (14 reviews) - [Everest Community Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/basingstoke/everest-community-academy-19225) — 3.4/5 (7 reviews) - [Brighton Hill Community School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/basingstoke/brighton-hill-community-school-22787) — 2.0/5 (6 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
