Feedback from Parents

"We feel genuinely happy to have our child at St. Stephen's Junior School. As well as being looked after academically to an incredibly high standard, they are offered such a wide variety of other activities to develop them beyond academics. In the case of our three girls they have been lucky enough to both sing and dance at the Marlowe Theatre, and represent the school at the regional gymnastics competition. I asked the children 'what is the best thing about this school?' and they all agreed that it is 'because it has the nicest teachers who sort everything out when you're upset' "- The Seed family
