"Fantastic school that truly understands ASD"

Tame Bank has been an absolute godsend for our family. The staff are incredibly experienced and supportive, and the facilities are modern and well-equipped. My child loves the flexibility of the curriculum and the opportunities they're getting to develop life skills.

"First Steps Together has exceeded our expectations"

I was a bit worried about sending my child to a specialist school, but the teachers and facilities at The Watkin have been fantastic. The emphasis on emotional wellbeing and independence has really helped my child thrive. I've seen a huge difference in their confidence and academic progress.

"Good experience, but some communication issues"

I was initially impressed with the ethos and values of First Steps Together, and my child did make some great friends. However, I did find the communication with teachers and the school to be a bit patchy at times. They seem to be working hard to improve things, so I'm hoping it'll get better.
