"Great school with a strong sense of community"

My child attended St Paulinus Catholic Primary Academy from Reception to Year 6 and I was always impressed with the sense of community and the emphasis on the values of the school. The staff are dedicated and caring and the facilities are excellent. However, I did find the communication from the school to be a little lacking at times.

"A great school with a lot to offer"

Our child has settled well into St Paulinus Catholic Primary Academy and we are pleased with the progress they are making. The staff are knowledgeable and enthusiastic and the facilities are excellent. I was a little disappointed with the way some of the children behaved on our first visit to the school but overall we are happy with the experience.
