What our Parents, Carers and Professional
Partners Say About Coombswood School

We are proud to share some of the feedback we have received from members of our school community and our sister school the Rowan School.

“I love so many things about Coombswood School, especially going on school trips! They’re always so much fun, and I get to learn new things outside the classroom. My favourite trip was to the RAF Cosford – we got to see so many real aeroplanes! I also like spending time with my friends and teachers while we explore new places. I wish we could go on school trips every week!”

“I joined Coombswood School in Year 7. We have had so many amazing lessons. The teachers making learning interesting, like in Lifeskills we were able to raise money for charity. We get to experience the outdoor world, my class attend swimming sessions, I had not been swimming before coming to Coombswood School.”

Coombswood Learner

“Coombswood School is absolutely amazing, my son has come on so much since he started”

Jade Collins

“I am very happy with Coombswood School, my son went to many different schools before attending Coombswood School, he really struggled to settle down. However, he now attends Coombswood and is very settled. He enjoys getting up early in the morning, getting himself ready for school, he has grown massively in his independence skills. We used to struggle to get him to school before, but now he is ready before we are. Coombswood School accepted my son, he can be himself, rather than masking. He is thriving at Coombswood School.”
