"Very Supportive Environment"

We're really happy with St Mary's so far. The school's commitment to inclusivity and respect is clear, and the teachers are very approachable. However, I do think the school could do more to communicate with parents about upcoming events and activities.

"A School That Truly Nurtures Children"

We were part of the St Mary's community for several years and had a truly wonderful experience. The school's focus on personal growth, development, and a love of learning really sets it apart. The facilities are excellent, and the staff are always willing to go the extra mile to support parents and children.

"Best school in the area!"

Amazing school. The teachers are all really, really kind and will help whenever needed. It has a nice outdoor field and plenty of space for educational activities. There is a SENDCO team that can always help and the school is very welcoming. Honestly wish I could have spent longer there! My 7 years there were brilliant and they give you plenty of skills and a great attitude to help you in later life. The school is always kept clean and safe and has a brilliant security. It has great safety protocols such as a lockdown and fire alarm system. Your children will be safe, well educated and happy! Bullying is handled very well and will be dealt with. There are school meals provided by Chartwell's and they of course offer the free school meal system for anyone that needs it. Everyone is treated equally and although it is a Catholic school, anyone from any religious background can go. Honestly the best primary school in Bognor Regis.
