"A good experience, but room for improvement"
We had a positive experience at On Track West Yarner, but there were some challenges. The staff were generally supportive, and I appreciated the focus on emotional intelligence. However, I felt that some of the teaching could be more engaging, and there were a few instances where communication could have been better.
