Report
Wow. This school was nothing but over protective and invasive of not only my sons life, but my familys home life. It it very unfortunate that the SEN system was in place, as it had potential to be great. They not only changed my sons education routine without my full consent, but had a full-on FILE of everything they knew about him. Would give 0 stars if I could.
