## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Mixed Experience: We've had a mixed experience with Appletree School so far. While the staff are friendly and the facilities are good, we've faced some challenges with communication and consistency. Our child is still adjusting to the therapeutic approach but we're hopeful it will pay off in the long run. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Wonderful Support and Care: We've been so grateful to Appletree School for the exceptional care and support our child received during their time there. The staff are kind, understanding, and dedicated to helping each child thrive. We especially appreciated the 'roots programme' which helped our child develop a sense of belonging and safety. *(Feb 2022)*
- **5/5** — Transformative Experience: My daughter attended Appletree School and it was a truly life-changing experience for her. The therapy and care she received helped her overcome some deep-seated issues and she's now thriving in all aspects of her life. We can't thank the team at Appletree enough for their love, support, and dedication. *(Aug 2021)*
