"> The Prep school is amazing but the senior school has real issues in my opinion. My daughter attended Ardingly for 5 years. Her dyslexia and her ADHD were never picked up and the head said she behaved like a 5 year old because she was dis-organised and untidy and struggled sometimes to remain focused (all part of dyslexia and ADHD). In my experience, a pupil is not allowed to make mistakes because they get severely punished unlike their marketing campaign which tells parents that they encourage pupils to make mistakes! I feel money is the top priority not the pupil's welfare. The head is, in my experience, unapproachable. I certainly would not recommend this school. There are better schools around and they are better value and offer fantastic welfare and support to their pupils. Ardingly College failed my daughter.
