Inscape House School Schools Hill, Cheadle SK8 1JE

"I have attended this school for 2 years and have another year left. It is amazing. As an autistic person who was struggled in main stream schools this is a place I feel comfortable and understood, and somewhere I feel I am growing as a person. It is small classes, personalised timetables, onsite therapy. Lots of options to grow socially, academically, and as a person. Most of the staff are lovely although I have had altercations with two rude members of staff. But the rest of the staff are lovely. This school is someone you really would want your child to be. Its ran by Hannah such a lovely headteacher, along with Richard and Marie. I have grown as a person and become more positive and understood the person I am because I have been in a comfortable environment. We do travel training which has helped along with life skills. I have been able to do Art A Level and they have found a great work experience placement for me. It really is like heaven for an autistic person. Lovely school."

"As you can see there is a lot of mixed reviews with inscape. Sadly where they have the specialists for therapy. Occupational and speech and language. So it's great for people who are a lot more challenged than others. The education side to the school is non-existent. They hire inexperienced teachers or teachers who simply don't want to teach the teaching assistants a lot of the time are good at heart but the teachers is another subject... You need to remember this isn't a main stream school and is more money orientated. So expect a few lies. In one instance a student has drank bleach which was on the side left for them to use at their disposal. Another instance a teacher has verbally threatened a student. Also a teacher has been caught accessing student to pornography. I have also witnessed a student strangle a female member of staff."

"My son transferred to Inscape in Yr 7 (from being part-time in mainstream). He is much happier in general now, and as the school understands his needs are able to support him much better. The communication from school to parents is excellent - nothing is too much trouble and issues are always dealt with. Would highly recommend Inscape, as their Autism knowledge is outstanding."

"My son currently attends inscape cheadle. He has come on leaps and bounds since he started at the salford school from year 7. The transition to cheadle was to a high standard and he loves the school the teachers and his lessons. As parents we have so much support. He has come a long way and the school has helped him achieve so much like his artwork being in the latest art exhibition at the lowery. Things like this give a child a big sence of achievement thankyou"

"My son goes to there school and the last 3 years have been challenging for want of a better word, the support we have had as a family is amazing and has made such a difference to our lives. Amazing charity xxx"
