"Outstanding Support from The Roaches Team"

The team at The Roaches School have been a lifesaver for my child. The smaller class sizes and focus on individual needs have made a huge difference to her confidence and academic progress. The outdoor activities and facilities are also fantastic. We're so grateful for the care and support she's received.

"A Home Away from Home"

The Roaches School has been a game-changer for my child. The supportive atmosphere and flexible approach to education have allowed him to thrive in a way he never could in a mainstream school. The staff are like a second family to us, and we feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful community.

"Mixed Feelings About Our Experience"

We have mixed feelings about our time at The Roaches School. On the one hand, the staff were always supportive and did their best to meet our child's needs. However, we felt that the school could have done more to prepare us for life outside of the school. The facilities were also not always well-maintained. Overall, it was an okay experience, but we're not sure if it was the right fit for us.
