"Wonderful School Community!"

I've been so grateful to be a part of the St James' Church of England Primary School community. My child is growing into a confident and compassionate young person, and we've loved watching them develop their passions and interests through the school's extra-curricular activities. The school values and faith emphasis have also been a significant influence on our family's spiritual journey.

"Excellent School, Could Improve on Communication"

We've been really happy with our experience at St James' Church of England Primary School. The teachers are supportive, and the school puts on a great range of activities and events. However, we sometimes find it difficult to get clear information about upcoming events and deadlines - perhaps a weekly newsletter would help? Overall, we're very pleased with our choice of school.
