Heatherwood School

June 2018

Heatherwood is a coeducational special school for pupils who have severe learning difficulties and additional profound and complex physical / medical needs. With multiple visits to the school our team paced the sessions to the pupils abilities, working closely with staff and parents, resulting in a 100% confidence score.

Parents’ feedback

“The session really helped me be confident about sexual talk and how to talk appropriately with my sister.” Rhoda Oluwagoba, guardian.

“I’m very glad I attended this session as I was a bit apprehensive about how to approach certain questions. This is an excellent programme, so now I feel much more confident for future talks with my child. I like the ‘tips and hints’ sheet too!” Charlotte Robbins, parent.

 

Key Facts
