"Needs improvement on communication"

We love the values and ethos of St Mark's, but we've had a few issues with communication from the school. The facilities are fantastic and the teachers are very supportive, but we feel like we don't always get the information we need in a timely manner.

"Excellent education and care"

We have nothing but praise for the team at St Mark's. Our daughter was supported every step of the way as she blossomed into a confident young person. The Breakfast Club and Wrap Around Care made a huge difference to our working lives.
