"Wonderful school, wonderful community!"
I've been blown away by the warmth and welcome of St Mary's. My child has thrived in a positive and inclusive environment that truly lives by the values of 'Every person matters, every moment counts'. The facilities are excellent and the staff are always on hand to support.

"A good school with some areas for improvement"
We've been pleased with the progress our child has made at St Mary's. However, we've sometimes found the communication from the school to be a bit patchy. The breakfast club is a big plus, and the staff are generally friendly and supportive.
