"Mixed feelings about the school"

I'm still getting used to the school's layout and policies, but I appreciate the staff's efforts to make my child feel comfortable. While some of the facilities could be improved, I'm glad to see the school prioritizing emotional intelligence and wellbeing. I do wish there were more opportunities for parent-teacher communication, but overall, Courtlands seems like a decent choice for families with anxious children.

"Amazing support for my anxious child"

I couldn't be more grateful for the nurturing environment at Courtlands. The staff are truly compassionate and understanding, and the 'Soft Starters' program was instrumental in helping my child transition back into education. I highly recommend this school to any parent seeking a calm and supportive learning environment.

The school's emphasis on creating a calm and safe environment allowed my child to flourish, and I was impressed by the staff's ability to adapt to their unique needs.
