Read what parents are saying about Barclay Early Childhood CenterMy child has an IEP. I requested 1 more additional individual speech therapy session.A member of the team suggested private speech therapy. As if I am going to pay for private therapy.Sorry I can't afford that. Trust me I would love to be able to provide that for my child.I already pay Cherry Hill Township a lot in taxes to live here! I was extremely disappointed to here such an unprofessional comment.Parents are suppose to be members of the IEPTeam, not true!
Posted by a parent on 11/3/2015Barclay really is the best preschool in the Cherry Hill area. Every teacher is a special education teacher. Every child, whether typically developing or developmentally delayed gets the benefit of having a teacher with that extra qualification as well as the programs available at this school. For example, every child gets weekly group OT and speech therapy. The teachers at Barclay are all in tune to where your children should be academically and developmentally. We absolutely love Barclay and highly recommend it for your preschooler.
Posted by a parent on 3/12/2015I think this school is wonderful. I am a staff member and have only been here for a short time. The teachers, assistants, secretaries and principal are very pleasant to work with. I can say first-hand that the teachers are very caring and have the child's best interest at heart. The curriculum is based on the New Jersey Standards for pre-school education. Daily lessons and activities are very well-planned and carefully connected to each standard. I can't say enough about how wonderful the teachers are and how much they care about each and every child. Wonderful work atmosphere.
Posted by a teacher on 11/8/2014It really is the best school I have sent my twins too. They were in need of services. Nothing but a positive experience..
Posted by a parent on 3/1/2011I can't say enough good things about Barclay. My son's speech has come such a long way. The staff has taught us how to deal with our son's sensory issues. The teachers truly love the kids and the administrators have been wonderful. I don't know what changes there have been to the curriculum but my son has gotten nothing short of stellar care there.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy disappointment is deepened by the apparent preferential treatment for Christian families. It seems King's Christian School welcomes only those who share their faith, a stark contradiction to their stated mission. Using the name of God while not welcoming non-Christian families is deeply disappointing and casts a shadow on the school's values.Shame on King's Christian School for their actions, which do not align with their professed mission and values.Parent Review6mo ago - Cherry Hill Montessori School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you love your child, do not send them to this 'school'.We sent our child here and had to take her out after half a year. There were multiple incidents of bullying and/or kids just misbehaving and the school not handling those situations properly. I had no false hope that every kid would act like an angel 100% of the time and believe I was realistic in hoping that if and when a child would not behave well, the teachers would know how to handle it- boy, was I wrong!My daughter was scratched, pushed, hit, had her leg stood on by a boy (to which the teacher just told the other kid not to do it bc my daughter didn't like it.... Because so many people would)The straw that broke the camels back was: my husband arrived to pick up my daughter and noticed a bump/bruise on her head. He asked the 3 teachers at the door what happened. They all said they didn't know.Our daughter told us that a boy (who had done other things to her in the past and sounded to be an overall behavioral issue), hit her in the head with a stick on the playground. I asked if a teacher saw. She said no. She said she told a teacher and that teacher put the kid in timeout. Ok, fine. BUT, she happened to be one of the teachers at the door that said she didn't know what happened to my daughter....In all the time my daughter went yo the school, we felt they operated in the dark. We never received an email about any incidents and when we brought it to her teachers attention, he said he would look into it and get back to me. Never did.After this last incident, they also said they were going to investigate and interview the teachers and get back to me with their findings. They never did.It became very obvious to me that this school was all about collecting $$, but not providing even the basic service of safety, not to mention an education.I am not an unreasonable individual, and if they had just communicated when things happened and told me how they remedied it, I would have been ok.Send your child elsewhere..... there are plenty of good schools out there. This is not one of them.Parent Review5mo ago - Resurrection Catholic School & Preschool
