I am now In high school (year10) and I miss this school a lot, St Francis of Assisi has always had a great atmosphere and amazing teachers, I would definitely recommend this school to parents and their children. It taught me everything that I needed to know to pass my exams and get good results. Thank you.

My children attended St Francis of Assisi ,
Both loved it fantastic primary school .

Not recommended and the children show respect but some adults don't. This school do not give pride to the children and they don't make children feel welcome. I do not recommend this place. I would rate it 0 stars but i can't.

the school is good we understood how to do sats.

This is the school I go to I am now in yr7 and I miss it very much
