"A School That Truly Cares"

We sent our child to The Meadows for their final 3 years of school and it was the best decision we ever made. The staff are all truly dedicated to their students and go above and beyond to ensure they receive the best possible education and care. My child made some amazing progress while they were there and we will always be grateful for the experience.

"Exceptional Support for My Child"

We've had our child at The Meadows for 2 years now and the level of support they've received has been outstanding. The staff are always available to answer questions and provide guidance on how we can support our child at home. The facilities are also excellent and my child has really benefited from the sensory and communication-friendly environment.

"Some Good, Some Not So Good"

We've had a mixed experience at The Meadows. On the one hand, the staff are all very friendly and our child has benefited from the sensory and communication-friendly environment. On the other hand, we've had some issues with communication and it's taken a while to get some things sorted out. Overall, we're happy with the school but there's definitely room for improvement.
