Local teacher in a mainstream school
Using the principles of conductive education has a marked impact on the development of individual children.
Local teacher
There is an emphasis on ensuring each child becomes as independent as possible and resulting overall progress has been a joy for me and my husband to see over the last year.
Parent
My daughter's quality of life has improved beyond belief since she stared attending the nursery. In September she will start mainstream school. She is now a happy, confident and intelligent little girl, who understands that she finds some things more difficult than other children.
Parent
Steps provides me with inspiration and courage...it means hope for the future.
Parent
This nursery has been a lifeline for me.
Parent
Poppy's development in terms of her problem solving and her knowledge/understanding of the world are a relative strength. The excellent quality of interaction offered by parents, conductive education and the support offered by the preschool service is obviously benefitting Poppy.

I wouldn't miss Steps for anything. It's my favourite time of the week.
