"Excellent facilities and staff"

My son was a bit apprehensive about leaving his old school, but the facilities and staff at Forestwood School put him at ease. The allotment project was a great idea - he loved getting his hands dirty and learning about gardening. The teachers are knowledgeable and caring, and we've seen a real improvement in his grades.

"Fantastic support for our son's education!"

We were worried about our son's education when he was admitted to Cygnet Hospital, but the staff at Forestwood School have been amazing. They tailored their approach to his needs and helped him catch up on his studies. We're so grateful for their support.

"Mixed feelings about our experience"

Our daughter was at Forestwood School for a short time, and while the staff were generally friendly and helpful, we felt that the school could have been more flexible in accommodating her needs. The Individual Education Plan was a great idea, but it took a while to get up and running. Overall, it was an okay experience, but we were hoping for more.
