"Fantastic school experience for our children"

We've had our two children attend Saint Barnabas since they started primary school and we've been consistently impressed with the care, education and values they've received. The teachers are supportive and enthusiastic, and the school's focus on community and faith has made a real difference to their lives. We feel so grateful to have found such a wonderful school in York!

"A truly special place for our daughter"

From the moment our daughter started at Saint Barnabas, we knew we'd made the right decision. The school's warm and welcoming atmosphere has made her feel safe and valued, and her progress has been incredible. We're so grateful to the staff and the wider school community for creating such a nurturing and supportive environment – we couldn't be happier!
