St Clare's School & Nursery

My children have attended St Clare's since they were 3 and a half, they are now 10 and 13. It has always been an excellent school, with wonderful supportive teachers and staff. During the recent lockdowns the school has really shone, both my daughters have received full lessons online by their usual teachers and support from all the school staff. It is a huge relief to know that they will not be falling behind academically, due to the pandemic, and to know that their mental health is always being considered by the staff. I would highly recommend St Clares for anyone looking for a nurturing and supportive learning environment for their children.

I would highly recommend St Clares school. The staff are friendly and approachable which combined with the small class sizes makes pupils feel confident and valued . The teaching is excellent and staff are always happy to help . St Clares has a lovely family feel in which my daughter has excelled and matured to gain excellent GCSE results.

I have nothing but praise for St Clares. The school has made a huge difference to my son, he has grown in confidence and he is extremely happy in the school. They have a caring ethos and look closely at the individual pupil in order to meet their needs. My son did very with GCSEs and this was a result of the excellent teaching and the holistic approach adopted by the school. As a parent I would recommend St Clares because it is such a wonderful environment for children to develop the skills needed to meet examination requirements, and because they really care about the children

I have 4 boys all of whom have attended or still attend the school. It is a wonderful learning environment that gives tailor made support to all pupils. We loved the fact that the prep school and senior school are so close and our older boys still get to see their younger brother. The GCSE results our eldest son had were as a result of the hours of work and support the teachers gave which went above and beyond what was expected. We were thrilled at how well he did. I would recommend this school to anyone looking for small classes and a nurturing environment for their children.

My daughter recently moved schools to start at St Clare's in year 8 and honestly it is the best thing we have ever done. From the first moment I made contact I was made to feel valued, as was my daughter. The whole school feels like it is giving you a big Welsh cwtch. I cannot fault anything with the school whatsoever. Every single member of staff I have met from the head teacher to the dinner ladies have all been friendly, helpful and genuinely seem to love their jobs and the children. So far this has come through in all the lessons my daughter has been in. She has rediscovered a joy of learning and is enjoying being valued within the class setting and not just feeling like a number on a register. I have high hopes for her future now and to see her go off to school every morning with a smile on her face is something I only dreamed of. I would recommend this school to anyone who wants their child to feel nurtured and cared for while being encouraged to do their best.

We could not have asked for a better or smoother transition for our 14 year old daughter. The cross over from a different curriculum and educational system had us a little nervous, however we need not have worried. From our initial application, the invitation of taster days, right up to her very first day. The leadership and staff support from each and every department was exceptional. We are extremely grateful and have no doubt that our daughter will flourish as she begins her educational journey at St Clare’s School.Our very best wishes and thank you to all.

A very positive experience from our first contact. Well organised and lots of relevant communications. My son is loving his time in St Clare's. I would recommend anyone considering this school for their child they make contact. My son asked on the weekend why he didn't start with St Clare's last year, I think they speaks more volumes than anything I could add. He's a very happy pupil.

Our experiences of having two children in St Clare's have been overwhelmingly and consistently positive. The school's culture is driven by a philosophy that happy children achieve their potential. Consequently teaching staff demonstrate high personal regard for the wellbeing of children in a professional and caring way. In witnessing both my children flourish and progress, my family has valuable peace of mind in our choice of school and will seek to place our third child in Nursery in the coming year.

From our initial tour and meeting at St Clare's, I knew that it was the school that I wanted to send our son to. The transition from his previous school was seamless, together with being thorough and we felt supported throughout the process. Henry has settled into his new school, he was happy and content from the very first week. Henry has developed in so many ways since he started. Academically he has made great strides and is now so much more confident and competent. But also, socially and emotionally he is far happier, content and he feels safe and supported.

We have been extremely impressed by the support and professionalism of St Clare's School, in the way they have swiftly enrolled our child and welcomed him into their Family. The School is very well organised and have our child's development and welfare at the heart of everything that they do. We know that our child's education is in the very best of hands.
