This is a great little Primary School in the Bailey's Court area of Bradley Stoke. It was built in…read morethe last 10 years, so the school buildings are in a pretty good state (the architecture is pretty modern too), but they have resorted to a few dreaded portacabins for a few of the classrooms, as the school has expanded. The standard of teaching is excellent. Results have been consistently high, and that makes it very popular, so only if you live fairly close will your kids be able to get in. The school is very friendly, and is at the centre of the local community. They have a great Christmas Fayre and Summer Fayre, which are not to be missed.

Located high above most of Bristol, and just 10 minutes from Park Street, St Michael on the Mount…read moreis easily accessible for anyone using public transport or walking. The actual school is situated just behind a very attractive church, meaning it is off the main road and is very private. The school is divided into two main buildings - one for Key Stage 1 and the other for Key Stage 2. Classroom size is a little on the small side, especially for KS2's, however there doesn't seem to be a feel of overcrowding. The teachers are all wonderful. There is a clear sense of dedication and it feels that every teacher really cares for each student. Children come from all backgrounds, with many having English as their 2nd language. There is a number of extra support staff who regularly takes small groups off to another room for extra help which is a very positive point. The school also benefits from the Outreach Scheme, which is a government funded organisation which places students from the University of the West of England into schools to aid the teachers. After speaking to a number of staff at St Michaels, it is apparent that they are extremely grateful for the additional help that the Outreach Scheme provides. There are morning and after school clubs offered, and also an option for school dinners or packed lunches. All young children are given milk and fruit for snacks and regularly encouraged to run around outdoors. A word of warning though, if driving, the lane leading into the schools car park is very long and narrow meaning only one car can fit down it resulting in a lot of congestion in the mornings and after school.
