Feedback from Parents and Carers

“The Key Skills team at Homewood have been excellent, starting from their involvement and flexibility from the transition period. They have always ensured a high level of communication with us and have always supported areas where a flexible approach to our son’s schooling has been required. They are always completely focused on what is best for our son and to ensure he is both happy and comfortable at school. As a result of this support our son has progressed even better than we expected in Key Skills.”

“Our first experience of SEND was not until Year 9. Since then the support and commitment to our daughter’s right to a fair education and continued wellbeing has been incredible. Our trust in them is absolute and we are secure in the knowledge that this will continue right through her education. So much so that we have already made the decision that our daughter will remain at Homewood until she is 18 with their continued support.   Thank you doesn’t seem enough.”

“Ever since starting Homewood my son has received outstanding support in every aspect of his personal well being. His support worker and the Key Skills team have continually gone above and beyond to ensure that all his worries, needs, concerns and niggles are dealt with and sorted out as quickly and efficiently as possible. “

“Nothing is ever too much trouble, no worry too silly or issue too big – we are always met with a positive, can do approach and an instant selection of options and suggestions about how we can make things better. My son knows that he only has to give a look and his support worker knows instantly that something is wrong or he needs help. This is fantastic as he is very poor at communicating how he is feeling and nervous at times to speak about it. “

“I was concerned when my daughter started at Homewood, worrying she wouldn’t cope with the huge changes and social situations. However with all the help and support from Learning Support, all these worries have disappeared. She has become a more confident child due to the reassurance of the team as she knows their door is always open and will listen to her and understand her. Through everything you have put into place to support her needs, all of this has resulted in her feeling able to express herself and work to the best of her ability. A few years ago, I could never imagine she would be doing so well. Many thanks for all your support.”

“The staff at Homewood that work closely with my son understand both his physical and emotional needs.  I am very impressed with the support that he has received from Homewood.”
