"Life-changing Experience for My Son"

Northumberland PRU has been a game-changer for my son. He was struggling in mainstream school and the PRU's holistic approach has helped him to flourish. The 4 Rs (Respect, Responsibility, Resilience and Reward) are embedded in everything they do and it's wonderful to see.

"Good Experience, but Room for Improvement"

We had a good experience at Northumberland PRU while our son was attending. The staff were friendly and the facilities were clean and modern. However, I do think they could improve their communication with parents and provide more opportunities for parents to get involved.
