Hi there,
Would anyone be able to give me some personal experiences about Woodlands School Harrow/Edgeware please? I've read all the reports (Ofsted-all outstanding) and I know its very well equipped.I'm looking a for a more personal experience. Are they the type of school that would go that extra step to bring-out the optimum potential in a special needs child? Any personal experience from a parent would be immensely helpful. My child, 3+, has severe learning/physical disabilities, and I'm terrified will be just stuck in a chair with a a couple of kids on too many 'group sessions' . Please help if you can.

Thanks so much.

don't know anything personal about the school Tulips, but I work in SEN and use their website loads.

Rarely do I find materials that are so well put together

Hi Tulips

I only came across your post now so sorry if it of no relevance to you anymore. I must state at the very begining that I work at Woodlands School so you might not take my view as an objective one.
we take very individualized approach to learning and I must ensure that no student is stuck in chair all day without any meaningful experiences. All staff are very commited t their work and you can feel the very positive atmosphere as soon as you walk in.
If you are still not sure I would recommend contacting our parent anbasador (parent of a child at Woodlands) who can either give you his own persoal view or get you in touch with some other parents. We also held Wednesday coffee mornigns that are attended by soem parents. Just give school a ring and they will giv eyou relevant information.
I hope it helps
