"Needs a bit more structure"
We've been at St Philip Howard for a year now and while we've been happy with the school, we feel that it could benefit from a bit more structure and organisation. The teachers are friendly and our child seems to enjoy learning, but we've had some issues with communication and consistency.

"Fantastic school community!"
We've been at St Philip Howard for 3 years now and we can't speak highly enough of the school. The teachers are caring and supportive, and the facilities are excellent. We love the emphasis on Catholic values and the opportunities for our children to learn about their faith.

"A great choice for our children"
We sent our children to St Philip Howard for 5 years and we're so grateful for the education and values they received. The teachers are experienced and knowledgeable, and the school's Catholic ethos is genuinely lived and breathed. I'd highly recommend the school to any parent.
