"Amazing school with lovely staff"

We transferred our child to George Hastwell School from a mainstream school and it's been the best decision we've ever made. The staff are so caring and understanding, and the facilities are fantastic. My child has really flourished here.

"Some mixed feelings"

We've had some mixed experiences with George Hastwell School. The facilities are great and the staff are generally friendly, but we've had some issues with communication and consistency. We're hoping things will improve as our child gets older.
