All centre staff are very friendly and helpful. Thank you to the kitchen staff who with a fuss free approach catered for our gluten free student. Each tutor was enthusiastic, engaged with the students and made huge efforts to learn names - the students enjoyed the work.

“Our children look forward to Cranedale as the ultimate Yr6 experience. As always they have not been disappointed. We would particularly like to mention your tutor’s understanding of one of our pupil’s physical difficulties, giving her a climbing wall experience she will never forget”
