Our son has coped with the massive transition into school, brilliantly. He has loved his first year at our local mainstream primary school. He has friends, he is a pleasure to teach and he's a valued member of the school. Portsmouth Down Syndrome Association ๐Ÿ’š AChandra FRCOphth PhD Stephanie Wilmore Sam Stallard
