What people are saying

  • “My child has made the best progress ever in his education since being in a therapeutic educational programme designed and run by the team at Acorn to Oak Education. It is designed around all of his needs, interests and skills with teaching and therapy integrated so he makes quicker progress. He’s happy and enjoys learning now.”

    Parent of an autistic learner, school placement package

  • “Our school placement broke down at the start of the summer term and by that half term we had accepted a place at a new provision for September with a plan for home based learning in between developed for us by the Acorn to Oak Education team. The new placement was in a setting we did not know before and has been a complete success. Thank you so much as we knew we were in great hands and it took the stress out of this difficult situation.”
