Parents were also invited to make any further comments regarding LWS. These are listed below;

“I honestly can’t fault the school. I am always kept up to date with progress, next plans, subjects and trips planned and any issues. Anything I’ve ever mentioned to the teachers has been resolved quickly and they go above and beyond to ensure ****** is being supported whether it be a subject or hobby he wants to learn. They are also fantastic in pushing ***** to his full potential but in a way that doesn’t overwhelm him. He is a completely different boy than he used to be and I want to do a special thank you to Mr ***** for all of his amazing support and patience. He has taught ***** so many coping mechanisms and gives up his break times to teach ***** various things such as chess, checkers and some sparring to support ***** interests.”

 

“Our son is a changed boy since starting LWS. The support he has had has brought out his confidence and shown his true educational abilities! We can’t thank everyone enough for their support towards ***** at LWS.”

 

“Since being at LWS he is flying. Wants to go to school and learn. Has friends. Different child. “

 

“Thank you so much for everything. You guys have done everything to push him and focus in his aspiration for returning to mainstream. His aspiration has now been realised!”

 

“A huge thank you to you and to all of ***** teachers for supporting him and working with him this year. I have seen so much positive progress in his social skills and academic ability so all of your hard work is much appreciated and noticed. ***** is very happy at LWS. “

 

“I couldn’t ask for anything better. ***** is always positive about school every morning; he never says he doesn’t want to go in. ***** picks up a pen now and wants to work in his lessons. This is amazing and goes to show how brilliant the team at LWS are.”

 

“Thank you so much for ***** report he is progression is all down to the support from LWS I will never be able to thank you enough.”

 

“I would just like to say what a wonderful job everyone is doing at the school to support the boys. ***** lessons are wonderfully structured and he actually teaches me all sorts of things (mainly so I know he is taking the information in). I know it can’t be easy for the teachers trying to manage educating the children in this way and I am extremely grateful that any questions are answered straight away by the teachers. This is a stressful time for everyone, however your school are just making my life that little bit easier with your quick set up of the alternative method of learning.”
