## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A School on the Right Path: We're really enjoying our time at St Mark's so far. The teachers are all so enthusiastic and our child is thriving in their classes. We're also impressed with the school's commitment to diversity and inclusion - it's great to see the children learning about different cultures and values. Our only slight criticism is that they could improve communication with parents, particularly regarding events and activities. *(Feb 2023)*

- **4/5** — A School That Stood Out: My children attended St Mark's from Reception to Year 6 and we absolutely loved it. The school's Christian ethos really resonated with us and the staff were always so supportive.
