"Excellent school"

My child has been at Saint John Houghton for 3 years now and I couldn't be happier with the education and care they receive. The school's values of inspiring ambition and excellence, guided by Christ, really shine through in the way the teachers and staff support the children. The facilities are excellent, especially the new sports hall!

"A shining example of Catholic education"

I have nothing but praise for Saint John Houghton. My children attended the school from 2008-2012 and it was a truly formative experience for them. The school's commitment to its Catholic values and mission is inspiring, and the results speak for themselves - all three of my children went on to attend top universities.

"Good, but could be better"

We've only been at Saint John Houghton for a year, but overall we're happy with the school. The teachers are generally good, although some of them seem a bit overwhelmed at times. The facilities are excellent, and the homework is manageable. However, we've had some issues with communication from the school, and it would be great to see more opportunities for parents to get involved.
