"Wonderful School Community"

My son has settled in really well at St John the Baptist and loves going to school every day. We've been impressed with the diversity of activities on offer and the school's commitment to outdoor education. It's a great place for kids to learn and grow.

"Mixed Experience"

We moved our kids to St John the Baptist a few years ago and initially had a great experience. However, in the last year or so we've noticed a bit of a drop in communication from the school and some inconsistencies in the way things are run. Still, the teachers and pupils are all great and we're glad we made the decision to send our kids here.
