The most extraordinary standards are strived for and achieved

The fundamentals are quickly and thoroughly learned

Pupils feel that they are listened to and know that staff take on board what they think

I have never heard the choir sing without getting a tear in my eye. The standard is phenomenal

Lots of fantastic school visits

Children are motivated and behave well. The school atmosphere is peaceful and relaxed

A chance to share prayers and thoughts every day

Much of the teaching is inspirational and this is characterised by very high expectations of the pupils who respond to challenging tasks with enthusiasm and make excellent progress

I think that the Christian ethos/atmosphere and commitment of staff is wonderful

Bathwick St. Mary’s is an outstanding Church school with a very strong Christian ethos which permeates all aspects of school life
