"Some good, some not so good"

We've had a mixed experience at St Thomas CofE Primary Academy. The school's facilities are great and the staff are always friendly, but we've found the teaching to be a bit inconsistent and our child has had some problems with bullying. Overall, it's an ok school but not quite living up to our expectations

"A great school with a strong sense of values"

We were so impressed with St Thomas CofE Primary Academy during our time there. The school's values of forgiveness, thankfulness, fairness, and trust are really brought to life in the way the children are taught and encouraged to behave. We felt very supported as parents and our child made some wonderful friends.
