Parents Testimonials

Students and Parents Club

It may only be a little thing to some people, but we feel proud that we can take our children to any situation and they will be confident, polite and hold a good level of conversation. We cannot as parents take all the credit for this, we fully believe it is down to the schooling they receive from Read.

Mr & Mrs Abrams

Wistow, Selby

Since our daughter Daisy started high school, it became increasingly apparent that she needed extra help with her education. The school she was studying at before she moved to The Read School wasn’t giving Daisy the help, or attention, she needed.

Mr & Mrs Speak

There is has an excellent team, able to tailor education to each child’s individual needs so that they all have a chance to show improvement.
