## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Outstanding Education and Support: We cannot speak highly enough of STARS and the incredible team of staff who have supported our daughter's education. The facilities at the Drapers Centre are excellent, and the curriculum is tailored to meet her individual needs. We've seen a huge improvement in her confidence and resilience, thanks to the school's ethos and values. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Reintegration Support: STARS has been a lifesaver for our daughter, who had struggled to access education due to her health needs. The reintegration program has been particularly effective in helping her build confidence and social skills, and we're grateful for the support of the staff in helping her transition back to mainstream school. *(Nov 2022)*
- **5/5** — Exceptional Support and Care: We've been so impressed with the care and support Emily has received at STARS. The staff are nurturing, ambitious, and truly committed to helping her thrive. The 12-week intervention has been a game-changer for her, and we're grateful for the opportunities she's had to engage in PSHE, life skills, and travel training. *(Sep 2022)*
- **3/5** — Mixed Experience: We had a mixed experience at STARS. On the one hand, our son received a good education and the staff were friendly and supportive. However, we felt that the school could do more to engage with us as parents and keep us informed about our child's progress. Overall, we were disappointed that we didn't see more progress in his confidence and social skills. *(Jun 2021)*
