“The Christian ethos of the school is best represented for me by the children’s respect for each other. From the eldest to the youngest, they show true care and thought in their actions.”
“I am encouraged to know that the Christian values my children learn at home are nurtured, supported and developed when they come to St Michael’s School.”
“We are a military family who moved to the area in time for our daughter ‘C’ to start of Year 5 at St Michaels. Naturally, ‘C’ was reluctant to leave her previous school and friends to start at another school where friendships groups were already well established. However, from her first day ‘C’ was welcomed into the school by both staff and pupils with kindness, where they actively integrated ‘C’ into the classroom and peer group. This made for an easy transition which was a huge relief and delight to my husband and I, and a very happy and settled child. I believe that it is the strong Christian values that make the school and children attending so special. The kindness, acceptance and support that has been shown towards ‘C’ since joining the school have had a positive impact in shaping her into the child she is today. The teachers at St Michaels are always happy and engage well with the children and they appear to be prepared to go the extra mile to support and encourage them to achieve the best they can. ‘C’ is always full of stories when she comes home from school about of how much fun the teachers make the lessons. I thoroughly support St Michaels school and I am thrilled that ‘C’ has been able to benefit from her time here.”
“St Michael’s has really welcomed our son and made his progression from nursery into school a smooth process and are sure that his development will continue under the team’s care and guidance.”
“Christian values are realised and apparent in so many positive ways they are evident as soon as you walk through the gate and leave a lasting impression when you leave.”
“St Michaels staff and leadership team don’t sit still for 5 minutes. They are constantly evolving to provide the best education, rounded development and progress for our children so they are equipped for now and for the future.”
“St Michaels is a CoE school with a strong practicing congregation this creates a local community spirit, which can be rare in these parts, as London can very transient……School should be the best years of your life and St Michaels gives me or my children no reason to dispute this theory.”
“The school is so special to us as it has had the great responsibility of starting our daughter off on her journey of enjoying school, learning, developing friendships and the Christian ethos of life. In all these categories we see a confident smiling daughter who we have never heard her say those dreaded words for any parent ” Mummy / Daddy I don’t want to go to school.”
“St Michael’s provides a safe, thriving and learning environment which comes from a real collaboration from the senior leadership team right through to all the staff (even contracted staff such as the catering team). This clearly filters through to the children. We love the way the school utilises the church field and works with St Michael’s Church to use these wonderful facilities as well as the church itself for school concerts and events. Both parents and children are very fortunate to be part of this School family.”
