"Room for Improvement, but Overall a Good Experience"

Our child has been at Fitzwaryn for a few years now, and while we appreciate the efforts made to accommodate her needs, there have been some issues with communication and consistency. However, the staff are generally supportive, and we've seen some positive progress in her learning and independence.
