What Has Been Said
“I really love being at First Steps, I am enjoying working in a smaller group and the teachers really listen and understand me better”
"I am enjoying my time at Stansfield House. My favourite lessons are Maths and English, because I really like my teachers. I get more attention, care, and support than I did in my last school. I feel happy and safe here"
