"Excellent School, Amazing Staff"

We have been part of the St Mary and St Giles community for over a year now and it has been an absolute joy. The staff are so supportive and caring, and the values the school instills in the children are wonderful. From the moment we walked in on our first tour, we knew this was the right place for our child.

"A Hidden Gem in Milton Keynes"

We were a bit hesitant about joining a smaller school, but St Mary and St Giles has exceeded our expectations. The facilities are great, the teachers are fantastic, and the sense of community is wonderful. We've seen our child grow and thrive in such a short time.

"A School That Truly Cares"

I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to send my child to St Mary and St Giles. The school's commitment to values and community is palpable, and the staff are genuinely invested in each child's success. While there are always areas for improvement, I have no hesitation in recommending this school.

"A Good, But Not Exceptional Experience"

We've had a mixed experience at St Mary and St Giles. The school has many positives, such as its strong sense of community and supportive staff. However, we've encountered some issues with communication and resource availability. Overall, it's been a decent school for our child, but we wouldn't necessarily recommend it to others.
