What do families think of us?

A questionnaire was recently sent to the 157 families who have been to the Burwood Centre for assessments over the last two years.  You can download the full report.  The responses were very positive, highlighting what a valuable service we provide to families.  Here are just some of the comments we received:

"We cannot recommend more highly the degree of expertise, understanding and professionalism we encountered and how much help it has been to us since.  We think the work of the Burwood Centre is absolutely essential as a resource to deaf children and their parents, we just wish we had heard about it sooner.  The Burwood Centre will receive our support in the future.  Thank you."

"I was given a positive picture of my child, how to use their strengths and support their weaknesses.  I found clear identification of their difficulties, which was supportive and gave me a new way to look forward."

"Burwood helped put into words, by a professional, what we already know about our daughter.  How she needs a lot more help at school than she is getting at present."

"We like everything about the Burwood Centre.  They met the needs of my daughter which enabled her to win the tribunal hearing.  Through this assessment she was able to prove the teachers wrong about her ability to succeed.  She is now doing very well at school and hoping to go to university soon."
