"A Community that truly cares"

St Mary's has been an absolute joy to be a part of. The school's commitment to the Catholic faith and its values has been evident in everything they do. My daughter has been supported every step of the way, from her form teacher to the extracurricular activities she's taken part in. We're sad to be leaving but know she'll always be a part of this amazing community.

"A Caring and Supportive Environment"

My son has thrived at St Mary's since joining in Year 7. The school's Catholic values and ethos have really resonated with him, and the facilities, such as the library and sports facilities, are excellent. The teachers are always approachable and provide excellent support to students. We're so grateful to have found this wonderful school!

"A Mixed Experience"

My daughter attended St Mary's from Year 7 to Year 10. While we were initially pleased with the school's Catholic ethos and facilities, we did experience some inconsistent teaching in certain subjects. However, the school's support for students with SEND was excellent, and our daughter benefited greatly from this. Overall, it was a mixed experience, but we're grateful for the positive aspects.
