Our most recent inspection by the Independent School Inspectorate, gave us the highest possible outcome – describing both the quality of pupils’ academic achievements and their personal development, as excellent.
From our children’s ‘highly enthusiastic approach to learning’ and their ‘outstanding attitude to their studies’, to their collaborative and supportive behaviour, ‘strong social awareness’ and ‘excellent personal development’ the inspection team praised all aspects of life at St. Mary’s.
