we have been to see the school.
The head teacher and head of care both said to us "the children here are children that have faild in other school's" did not like that comment.
They only allow children 2 weekly or 4 weekly home (not good).
The accomadation and dinning area looks like a 60s holiday camp, very thew personal items no personal bedding.
evening activ were limited, outings were limited to the beach or the docks, go to the local village school for sporting activs, did not see any hint of a computor room.
We were not happy.
Hope this helps

I dont want to give an image of an uncaring disinterested school, just was not right for our son, you know what its like first impressions an all have to trust our instin, iam sure they do ok for some.

Candlewax,
and anyonels looking at the PGMS web page,
My good the pics are not wht we saw 2 weeks ago, the rooms had bright red Q covers and 4 to 5 beds per room, the dinning hall is an allin 1 now,
Anyone thinking of sending or having the child sent there by their local LEA should visit the school with prepared Qs as the web site pics are to be Q?
