Parent Voice
Some of our parents have shared their experiences and views of our school:
"All Saints CofE Academy is a unique school and an excellent choice! We were warmly welcomed and feel part of the school family. The experienced teachers are knowledgeable and ready to help anytime. Our daughter loves her class and enjoys learning new things everyday. She enjoys the extracurricular activities. The curriculum supports and promotes learning in a way that encourages children to want to learn more. The school prioritises children’s health, wellbeing and learning in everything they do."

"I’d looked at several schools in the area before choosing All Saints. Even though I was still uncertain about a mixed class school as I had no experience of them, I knew being at a smaller school was going to be perfect for my son. I could see the values they held and the ethos of the school were something I wanted for him. He’s now in his second year at the school and thriving in the system. He’s been supported by older children whilst in Reception and now he’s in Year 1, he’s showing the same kindness to the reception children. All the children get to know each other across the year groups, the buddy system is a great support to new children, the wrap around care offered is fantastic and the teachers and Head are always approachable. I definitely made the right choice for my child and would definitely recommend All Saints if you’re looking for a learning environment with kindness and care at the heart of it."

"Mixed-age classes have been such a positive experience for all 3 of our children at All Saints. Being part of a small school where everyone knows each other has created a real sense of community, and it’s lovely to see friendships forming naturally across year groups. Academically, it’s been hugely beneficial for each of them. The mixed setting really helped build their confidence in maths, as they were able to revisit and reinforce key skills while also supporting younger classmates. At the same time, being exposed to the next year group’s English work has stretched and inspired them, giving them a glimpse of what’s ahead and encouraging them to aim higher. Overall, it’s been a nurturing and motivating environment that’s brought out the best in all three of them."
