My child has had a great time with their friends, but I've found the communication with teachers to be a bit patchy at times. The facilities are lovely, and I appreciate the emphasis on RE and phonics. However, I do wish the school would provide more feedback on my child's progress - it's hard to know what they're doing well or not. *(Mar 2023)* - **5/5** — Excellent all-round school!: I'm thoroughly impressed with St Teresa's! My child is thriving in the welcoming and inclusive environment. The teachers are supportive, and the facilities are fantastic. I particularly love the emphasis on community and kindness - values that I believe are essential for our children to grow into compassionate individuals. *(Sep 2022)* - **5/5** — A school that truly cares: As a parent of a former pupil, I can confidently say that St Teresa's provided an exceptional education for my child. The staff are dedicated, and the school's commitment to safeguarding and welfare is outstanding. I'm so grateful for the opportunities my child had and the values they instilled - they've become a confident and compassionate young adult. *(Nov 2021)* ## Other schools in Colchester - [St Helena School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/colchester/st-helena-school-13387) — 1.8/5 (48 reviews) - [The Gilberd School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/colchester/the-gilberd-school-13369) — 1.5/5 (38 reviews) - [Philip Morant School and College](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/colchester/philip-morant-school-and-college-20540) — 1.7/5 (22 reviews) - [Colchester Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/colchester/colchester-academy-11983) — 1.4/5 (19 reviews) - [Colchester County High School for Girls](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/colchester/colchester-county-high-school-for-girls-13057) — 2.0/5 (18 reviews) - [Paxman Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/colchester/paxman-academy-20743) — 2.3/5 (13 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
