Year 5 Pupil

Year 6 Pupil
“The school provides such a wealth of happiness in all aspects of learning and never fails to impress with providing the children with first-class education and an extensive extracurricular activities calendar. This creates a balance within the children to enable them to explore so many aspects of life, whether it be sport, reading, drama, music and dance, science workshops, cookery, art and indeed the use of the latest technology within a safe environment. This fundamental learning at such an early age has given all my children such an appetite for life. They go in and come out with smiles on their faces. As parents we could ask for nothing more.”

“I have taught PE and provided sports clubs to St. John’s and St. Mary’s for the past 11 years and have loved every second of it. As an ex pupil of both schools I have a big connection to them and no doubt found my love for sports on both their playgrounds. St. John’s was the first school I took on as a company and I owe a lot to the school for their constant support over the years to help me grow, not only as a business but as a PE teacher. Both St. John’s and St. Mary’s are amazing schools and are delight to teach in. “
Gareth Edwards, First for Sports
“St Mary’s school has fantastic, dedicated teaching staff. They have worked with us extensively to support the well-being and progress of our child with SEN.”

“School life is lots of work and it is very good. There are lots of after school clubs which are great, wii fit is good fun, board games is really good and Judo is the best. The teachers are nice and kind. Using the iPads is a good and fun way to learn. I am very happy with my school we learn lots and we have a great playground.”
Mortimer St. John’s Pupil
“It is brilliant to still, after many years, be collaborating with a school committed to using dance as a way to fire young people’s creative skills. The school’s focus is about ensuring pupils get a chance to have an enriched curriculum and access quality dance. I’m proud that the school has been used as a case study for Youth Dance England.”
John Darvell, Artistic Director of Nocturn Dance
“Yet another outstanding achievement for the children at your wonderful school. An enormous thank you to First For Sports for their incredible energy and this amazing opportunity.”

“Mortimer St. Mary’s Junior School provides a nurturing environment, welcoming pupils from Year 3 onwards and developing them academically, emotionally and socially so that they are ready to progress to the next stage of their education after Year 6. The school tailors its approach as far as possible to the individual student so that pupils’ different needs are recognised and accommodated. There is a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities for pupils to be involved with from language, music and sport to magic and science clubs. Teachers and the senior leadership team are approachable and always willing to engage with parents and carers to ensure that each child reaches his or her potential.”
Mortimer St. Mary’s Parent
“I have had the privilege of joining the children for classes and school trips and find myself in awe of the teaching staff and indeed the children. The unconditional care and support that is shown to each and every child is quite remarkable. This reflects on the children’s attitude and in turn they strive to better themselves in everything they do. The children are praised both in effort and attainment which gives them such a huge sense of pride and the office provides a first class communication system between school and home so parents too are notified with regards to all aspects of their children’s learning.”
Mortimer St. John’s Parent
“Mortimer St. Mary’s is an inclusive, happy and productive environment that brings out the best in its pupils. The teachers take the time to get to know, understand and support the children. Along with the many opportunities on offer, from music to theatre productions to sporting activities, the school creates a rich and safe learning environment for all of its children.”
Mortimer St. Mary’s Parent
“My son enjoys the exciting day trips the students can go on to support their learning, as well as the creative classes he has where they build models, solve problems and have a chance to present their own work from home. He is also a big fan of the extra clubs offered by the school including First for Sports, Science and French.”
Mortimer St. Mary’s Parent
“Mortimer St. Mary’s is a well-run school that is true to its ethos. There is a genuine feeling of community and joy around the school that creates a fun, friendly place for the children to develop into well rounded, happy and capable young people. Our unique learning journey has been enhanced at both ends of the spectrum with Senco support to accommodate weakness and tailored academic challenges to enhance learning strengths.”
