The dedication, expertise, love and caring he has received from all the staff here is second to none. Their positivity and ‘can do’ attitude is infectious and our son continues to improve and thrive in this environment.
I recommend this school to anyone who has a child with learning difficulties or communication challenges, the work that is done here is amazing and worth every penny!

We were told at most of Jake’s appointments and assessments that it was more than likely that he would never talk and that we should come to terms with it. How wrong they were. Most of this down to Jake’s determination (stubbornness) and willingness to learn but a lot of his success is down to you guys. Your patience and understanding of him and your personalities are a gift that ye have. Words cannot describe what you have done for us over the past year and how you have changed not just Jake’s life but mine and Jonathan’s also. The support and guidance that you have given us is more than we could ever have hoped for.

My son attended CLDP for a year prior to play school. He has Down Syndrome. He was assigned a programme suited to his needs which was reviewed with us his parents and his early intervention team on a regular basis. I feel that the one-to-one tuition was the biggest advantage. Also he learned to sit and listen and be part of a group in a classroom environment. From removing his coat, taking his lunch and toilet training, Joan and the staff were all fantastic in giving him his independence. When he started play school the following year he was more than able to hold his own. CLDP gave him the best start for school life.
