- **5/5** — Excellent School with a Heart of Gold: We moved to Rochdale and were unsure about the local schools, but St John with St Michael has exceeded our expectations. The staff are friendly, the facilities are great, and the values of the school align with our own. Our child has thrived here. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — A Home Away from Home: St John with St Michael has been a godsend for our family. The 'Learn Alongside' sessions have been a highlight, allowing us to see our child's progress and celebrate their achievements. The staff are approachable, and the school's values of kindness and empathy are evident in everything they do. *(May 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Decent School, but Room for Improvement: We had a good experience at St John with St Michael during our time at the school, but our child has since moved on. While the facilities are modern, and the staff are friendly, we felt that the school could have benefited from more parental involvement and communication. *(Jan 2021)*
