"A Home Away from Home for My Child"

I couldn't be more grateful for the love and care my child receives at The Davenport School. The Meadow Days program has been a game-changer for their emotional development, and I love how the staff encourage individual expression. Our child's Core Values are being taught every day, and I've seen a significant improvement in their confidence and self-esteem.

"A Mixed Experience"

We had a good experience with The Davenport School, but it wasn't without its challenges. The staff were generally supportive, but we had to navigate some bureaucratic red tape at times. However, our child did make progress, and we appreciate the efforts of the teachers and support staff. Perhaps it's just a case of 'you get what you pay for' in the world of special education.
