"Room for improvement"
My child has been attending Philpots Manor School for a few months, and while we've seen some positive changes, there are still some areas where the school falls short. The therapy programs are excellent, but we've experienced some communication breakdowns between teachers and parents. We're hoping to see some improvements in the coming months.

"A safe haven for our daughter"
We were blown away by the warm welcome we received at Philpots Manor School. The school's focus on wellbeing and social skills has been a perfect fit for our daughter, who has struggled in the past. The taster sessions and assessments were thorough, and we feel confident that the school can meet her needs.

"An amazing school"
My child attended Philpots Manor School for a few years, and it was a truly life-changing experience. The staff went above and beyond to support her, and the facilities are second to none. I'm so grateful for the progress she made, and I have no hesitation in recommending the school to other families.
