The most extraordinary standards are strived for and achieved

Good balance between challenge and support

The fundamentals are quickly and thoroughly learned

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

Lots of fantastic school visits
