Breakdown
Parent summary
SPVR Arcade offers some genuine strengths for SEN families, particularly a welcoming staff approach and dedicated calm spaces. The craft room and soft play areas are well-maintained, and there's VR available if that interests your child. The environment can be quite noisy at times, which is worth being aware of depending on your child's sensory needs.
