Newbury Independent School has been a game-changer for our child. The dedicated teachers and support staff have worked tirelessly to help him overcome his learning difficulties. The small class sizes and individualised approach have allowed him to thrive, and we've seen a significant improvement in his confidence and self-esteem. We're so grateful to have found this school!

"A Safe and Caring Environment"
We were initially hesitant to send our child to a specialist school, but Newbury Independent School has exceeded our expectations in every way. The school's emphasis on British values and Christian principles has helped our child develop a strong sense of moral fibre, and the staff have been incredibly supportive throughout his journey. The only reason I wouldn't give it a full 5 stars is that we've encountered some minor issues with communication from time to time.

"A Mixed Experience"
We sent our child to Newbury Independent School a few years ago, and while we appreciated the school's efforts to provide a safe and supportive environment, we felt that the teaching methods and resources were somewhat outdated. The staff were generally friendly and approachable, but we encountered some difficulties with consistency and communication. Despite this, our child did make some progress, and we're grateful for the opportunities the school provided.
