"Excellent Support and Facilities"

Our daughter has thrived at Appleford, benefiting from the school's small class sizes and personalized support. The facilities are top-notch, and we love the emphasis on pastoral care and wellbeing. We're so impressed with the school's approach to teaching children with dyslexia.

"Mixed Emotions"

We moved our son to Appleford a few years ago, hoping for a better fit for his needs. While the school has many strengths, we've experienced some challenges along the way. The teachers and support staff are generally excellent, but we've encountered some inconsistencies in the quality of education and pastoral care.
