‘Pupils are motivated in lessons and demonstrate the hard-working attitude that is one of the school’s values.’ - Independent Schools Inspectorate
'Leaders demonstrate a firm emphasis on pupils’ wellbeing through warm and caring interactions . . . developing their self-esteem and confidence within a nurturing environment in which they feel valued’ - Independent Schools Inspectorate
'Pupils grow into self-confident and self-assured learners. Particularly effective use of specialist teachers is made to enhance children’s lessons in subjects such as modern foreign languages and music. As a result, pupils are taught well across the whole of the school’s broad and balanced curriculum.' - OFSTED
The school has an excellent record of preparing children for secondary schools – some of our children win scholarships to independent secondary schools; others move to the local state schools; the majority of those who opt to take the selection tests to the grammar schools pass successfully. At St Martin’s we are committed to producing well-rounded individuals, ready for the demands of senior school life.

- Focus on wellbeing
