The most recent inspection cemented St. Mary's position as a school that provides quality educational experiences for all its children in a happy, caring and stimulating environment.

The school was commended in its Inspection for the very positive, inclusive ethos, the orderly learning environment and the excellent behaviour of the children and the positive relationships that exist in the school at all levels. Particular reference was made by the Inspectorate to "the very good oral and written communication (between school and home), the comprehensive information about key policies such as pastoral care and child protection and the high levels of support provided for the children".

The Inspectorate reported that parents indicated high levels of satisfaction with provision in the school and with all aspects of school life. Inspectors also reported that the pupils spoke enthusiastically about the teachers, the healthy break routines, the wide range of after school activities, the strong links established within the local area and the support systems available to them in school.

These are things that we as a school value and take great pride in. As a school community, we are proud of our success to date and are pleased with the strengths which the Inspection recognised. All who work in and support the school have the shared commitment and passion to continuously strive for even more.
