The values of Respect, Inspire, Succeed, Engage, and Discover are not just words - they're a way of life for the students and staff here. We feel so lucky to have found this hidden gem! *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — Fantastic Support and Education!: We were struggling to find a school that could meet my child's needs after being permanently excluded from their mainstream school. RISE Alternative Learning Provision has been a game-changer for us. The staff are supportive, knowledgeable, and truly care about each student's success. The facilities are well-equipped and clean, and the values of Respect, Inspire, Succeed, Engage, and Discover are evident in everything they do. We're so grateful for this opportunity. *(Jan 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Experience: We had a mixed experience with RISE Alternative Learning Provision. While the staff were generally supportive and the facilities were good, we felt that the school could have done more to engage our child in the learning process. Our child did make some progress, but it was slow and often felt like a struggle. That being said, we appreciate the efforts of the school and believe that it could be a great option for some families. *(Sep 2021)*
