"Life changing experience"

My son has struggled to cope in mainstream school due to his challenging behaviour, but since he joined Bradford AP Academy, I've seen a massive change in him. The staff are dedicated, understanding and supportive, and the facility at Aireview is calm and welcoming. He's finally started to engage with his learning and make progress, thank you BAPA!

"Helped my daughter find her path"

My daughter attended Cityview and I was blown away by the level of support she received. The staff were patient and understanding, and the curriculum was tailored to her needs. She gained confidence and qualifications that have set her up for a great future. Although she's moved on to college, I still appreciate the positive impact BAPA had on her life.

"Some good, some areas for improvement"

My son has been attending the Bungalow for a few months now, and while I've noticed some progress, I feel that the communication between staff and parents could be better. The facility is lovely and the staff seem committed to helping the children, but I've had some concerns about the consistency of the teaching. Overall, it's been a mixed experience so far.
