- **4/5** — Some mixed feelings: We've had a bit of a mixed experience with Yarrow Heights School. On the one hand, the staff are very committed to their work and my child has benefited from the therapy sessions. However, I've found the communication from the school to be a bit patchy at times, and there have been some issues with organisation. Overall, it's been a good experience, but there's definitely room for improvement. *(Jan 2023)*
