## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Transforming Lives at Avenue Centre: My son has been at Avenue Centre for a few months now, and the difference in him is incredible. He's more confident, he's making progress with his studies, and he's forming positive relationships with the staff. The commitment to personalised learning and destination-focused contracts of education is really impressive. I feel so lucky to have found this school. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Support for My Daughter: Avenue Centre has been a game-changer for my daughter. The nurture-based approach and attachment-aware approach have really helped her settle in and make progress. The staff are always available to talk and offer support, and the facilities are great too. We're really grateful for the help they've provided. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some Good, Some Not So Good: I was really impressed with the initial consultation and the enthusiasm of the staff at Avenue Centre. However, I felt that the communication could be improved, especially when my son was transitioning back to his mainstream school. The facilities are great, but I think the school could benefit from more resources and activities to engage the students. Overall, it was a mixed experience. *(Sep 2021)*
