What do our families say?
"We as a family can’t fault St John’s and wish we had sent our child there from the start. He will only have been there for 1 school year and has thrived, he has a great relationship with Mrs Hopkins and Miss Picking. We have been made to feel very welcome from Mrs Devane and the rest of her school family. Such a great school and we recommend it all the time. Communication is amazing, from weekly newsletters to weekly class updates. Keep doing what you are doing, it’s great."-May 2024
"The teachers / staff are friendly encouraging, enthusiastic, kind, helpful and I feel involved with my childrens education. I am happy, my child feels safe, cared for, and is learning lots, has friends and is generally happy about school. She says her favourite things are literary and assembly and art.- May 2024
"I’ve been lucky enough to have sent both my children to St John’s, they both started at Jumping John’s nursery before starting at the school which was a smooth transition when it came to starting in reception. The school has offered a great education and support for us over the last 6 years and the clubs offered after school as well as swimming and Forest school during the school day is fantastic. Thank you everyone at St John’s!" - February 2023
"The staff at St. John's work hard to make sure every child is included and their interests persuade. The children love school and are eager to go each day." - February 2023
“Both my children attended the nursery and smoothly transitioned into infants at St John’s.
Throughout their years here the staff have gone above and beyond to support us as a family during a family bereavement and help to navigate the SEND pathway for my youngest child.
My children have grown and thrived as individuals within the setting. Gaining the solid foundations to the start of their educational journey.
I can’t be thankful enough to the staff here” - February 2023
