"A brilliant school with a lovely community"

We're so grateful for the education our child received at Bishop Chavasse. The school's values of compassion, honesty and wisdom really shine through in the way the teachers nurture and support the children. The Forest School is a highlight of our week and we've loved watching our child grow and develop as a result of their time there.

"Mixed feelings about the school"

We've had a mixed experience at Bishop Chavasse. While the facilities are excellent and the staff are generally friendly, we've sometimes struggled with communication and our child's needs have not always been met. That being said, we do appreciate the focus on outdoor learning and the school's commitment to community values. With a bit more attention to detail, we think this school could be truly outstanding.
