"Warm and welcoming community!"

We've been at St Budeaux for a year now and it's been an incredible journey. The staff are always happy to help and the facilities are brilliant. My son loves attending and can't wait to come to school each day. The values of the school really shine through in the way the children are cared for and supported.

"A nice school, but some areas for improvement"

We've been at St Budeaux for a few months now and it's been a mixed experience. The staff are generally friendly and the facilities are good, but we've experienced some issues with communication from the school. I would like to see more opportunities for parent involvement and feedback.

"A truly exceptional school!"

St Budeaux has exceeded all our expectations. The teachers are knowledgeable and passionate about their subjects, and the children are encouraged to excel in all areas. We've been particularly impressed with the opportunities for extra-curricular activities and the support from the school for local charity work.

"A great foundation for my child's education"

I have fond memories of my child's time at St Budeaux. The Early Years area was well-equipped and the teachers provided a nurturing environment for my child to thrive. While I've moved to a different area, I would highly recommend the school to families seeking a Christian ethos and a commitment to academic excellence.
