## Recent parent reviews

- **2/5** — My time: i raelly like this scool the make me save *(Jan 2025)*
- **5/5** — A Home Away from Home: My son has been at Cleeve Meadow for 2 years now, and I couldn't be happier with the way he's grown and developed as a person. The staff are incredibly supportive and understanding, and the facilities are top-notch. The bike blenders in the cafeteria are a genius idea! We feel so lucky to be part of the Cleeve Meadow community. *(Jan 2022)*
- **4/5** — Cleeve Meadow's a Hidden Gem: My daughter moved on to mainstream school last year, but we were so grateful for the foundations she built at Cleeve Meadow. The school's emphasis on empowerment and wellbeing really helped her develop a positive self-image. I was also impressed by the variety of extracurricular activities, like the Duke of Edinburgh award. We'll always be thankful for the time she spent at Cleeve Meadow. *(May 2021)*
- **4/5** — Room for Improvement: We've been at Cleeve Meadow for a while now, and while the staff are generally great, I do think the school could do more to engage with parents. I've often felt left out of important decisions or updates. That being said, our daughter loves the TKAT ACE program and has benefited from the extra support. Maybe with some tweaks, Cleeve Meadow could be a truly exceptional school. *(Feb 2020)*
