## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Wonderful school, friendly staff!: My son has been at St James' for 18 months and we've had a great experience. The facilities are lovely and the staff are so welcoming and supportive. I particularly like the emphasis on British values and the opportunities for the children to participate in Forest Schools. *(Sep 2023)*
- **5/5** — Great school, a bit too traditional for me: We moved to the area last year and my daughter joined St James'. The school has a lovely atmosphere and the teachers are very dedicated. I do wish they would be a bit more innovative with their approach to learning, but overall it's a great school and I'm glad we made the switch. *(Jun 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent education and values: My son has thrived at St James' and I'm so grateful for the education he's received. The school's emphasis on kindness, respect and responsibility has really made a difference to his attitude and behavior. The teachers are superb and I've always felt welcome at the school. *(Jan 2023)*
- **4/5** — Good school, but could be improved: My daughter attended St James' for two years and we had a generally positive experience. The school is well-organized and the staff are friendly, but I did feel that the curriculum could be a bit more engaging. Overall, it's a good school and I would recommend it to others. *(Sep 2022)*
