## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — An Oasis of Support: Cambian Great Dunmow School provided our child with a stable and loving environment that we couldn't have imagined anywhere else. The school's values of respect, empathy, and kindness have stayed with our child long after they left. The 'Hill House' approach to individualised pathways has been a revelation, and we're so grateful for the school's hard work in supporting our child's development. *(Jun 2023)*
- **5/5** — A Home Away from Home: We have been incredibly impressed with Cambian Great Dunmow School. The staff are compassionate, understanding and truly care about the children's well-being. My child has thrived in their sensory room and the new 'Outside In' classroom is a game changer. We feel so lucky to have found this school. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Room for Improvement: We've had a mixed experience with Cambian Great Dunmow School. The staff are warm and welcoming, and the school's focus on emotional regulation is a strength. However, the academic side of things has been a bit of a struggle for our child. With a bit more support in this area, I'm convinced the school could be truly exceptional. *(Jan 2022)*
