"Mixed feelings about the school"
We've been a bit disappointed with the communication from the school, sometimes it feels like we're not getting the information we need. However, the staff are generally friendly and our daughter enjoys the activities, especially the outdoor learning sessions. We're giving it another year to see if things improve.

"Great facilities and supportive staff!"
I've been truly impressed with the facilities at Birkett House, our daughter loves the hydro pool and soft play. The staff are also incredibly supportive and understanding, we feel so lucky to have them in her life. Our daughter has made great progress since joining the school.

"Excellent values and community spirit"
My son attended Birkett House for several years and we were always impressed by the values and community spirit that the school promotes. The staff were always available to listen and offer support, and my son thrived in the inclusive environment. We miss the school but are grateful for the time we had there.
