"Amazing community and dedication to wellbeing!"
We've been at Drapers Mills for three years now and I couldn't be happier with the school. The staff are so supportive and really care about the children. The emphasis on kindness, respect and resilience is wonderful and I love the events they organise for parents to get involved.

"Love the TKAT ACE program"
We've been really impressed with the TKAT ACE program here at Drapers Mills. It's great to see the school going above and beyond to support children who need extra help. Our child has benefited greatly from the one-to-one mentoring and we've seen a real improvement in their confidence and grades.

"Great school with wonderful values"
My child has moved on to secondary school but we're still in touch with many families from Drapers Mills. We always found the school to be very welcoming and the staff were always on hand to help. We loved the focus on kindness and respect, it really showed in the children's behaviour.
