We were pleased to see our son make progress at Peterhouse School, but we did experience some challenges with communication and consistency. The staff were generally supportive, but they could benefit from more training in autism awareness. Overall, a good effort, but room for improvement.

"A school that truly understands our child"
We have been so impressed with Peterhouse School since our daughter started. The staff are supportive and understanding, the facilities are excellent, and the 'Blended Offer' has been a game-changer for her. She has finally found a place where she can thrive.
