Parent Testimonial 1:
"I will never be able to express our gratitude towards the teachers and support staff at Knowl Hill School over the last 5 years. Our child has become stronger and has dealt with whatever life has thrown at him over time. He has, with your support, become confident, knowledgeable, caring, and mature, but most of all, he loves life, and moving forwards, knows what he has to achieve to continue to move towards his chosen career."

"Dear Mrs Ash,
She loved every minute in your class, the fun made the work look effortless most of the time. The productions, she absolutely adored, helped her to be herself. Will never be able to thank you enough. It makes a difference when teacher believes in her pupil no matter how much they try to push back, always finds the way. And to start with, my daughter did, to the point refuse to go to class. You have made a huge impact on her life."

"Dear Miss Weltz,
Thank you for supporting me with textiles, I know I was a handful which I appreciate you being patient, and I'm also sorry for which miss medley calls it ‘‘Eryning’’ your room. You have inspired me to look at textiles in a new way, I now know textiles is not always about a needle and thread, but much more.
I have learnt a lot from you so I thought I would write you a little letter."

"Since joining Knowl Hill (Bisley Campus), my son has been experiencing unparalleled happiness. He is finally able to comprehend mathematics and English lessons, and he eagerly anticipates attending them. Prior to his enrollment at Knowl Hill, he struggled in a mainstream school, left to fend for himself due to insufficient staff to accommodate his learning needs.
Knowl Hill has fostered a supportive environment where my son has formed meaningful friendships with peers who understand him and do not bully him for his learning difficulties. He returns home from school with a contented smile, despite the long journey to and from school. Despite the challenges, he remains enthusiastic and ready to attend school each day.
Knowl Hill has made my son’s journey thus far an extraordinary experience. I am deeply appreciative of the staff’s efforts in providing a positive and enriching learning environment for my son. During this limited period, he has found happiness and motivation to attend school and pursue his academic goals.
Thank you to Knowl Hill for your unwavering support. We eagerly anticipate many more positive experiences and milestones in my son’s future."
Parent Testimonial 9:
"Since starting at Knowl Hill School Bisley, we have been thrilled with the positive progress that our child has made in all aspects from her school attendance to her self-esteem and her happiness. This has been a huge relief to us as a family whose lives were hugely impacted by the struggles of our daughter being unable to attend school full time for the past year. She was previously attending school for only half an hour of one-to-one OT, SLT sessions and on some days, she was able to do group sessions and one morning session a week which included 1 break time. Our daughter is now in full time and has almost 100 percent attendance reason for not being in was only due to her being poorly and moving house. She now wants to stay longer every afternoon when I come to pick her up which is amazing to see and hear."

"From the moment you walk into Knowl Hill School (Bisley Campus), there’s a sense of calm and serenity that’s immediately noticeable. Our son still uses his self-regulating behaviours upon arrival, but his transition now takes five minutes instead of thirty. He walks in smiling — relaxed and content."
