          Mini- Police attestation- brilliant! What a great example for all schools and communities. 

 

 Caroline Allen - Member of the Public - 16/10/2021 

            It's fab to see your school is not just about 'boring lessons'. You believe in enriching the whole child, not just their brains. It may only be a small thing like singing, hot chocolate and cake etc but your students get to make such fantastic memories on their school journey. Well Done!

 Spire Juniors is a friendly and enthusiastic school.  The children always look happy to be there and all of the staff are energetic and positive.  With huge support and hard work from the staff and Headteacher, this school is a wonderful environment to learn in.

I have loved being in your school as the children were genuinely really interested and engaged in what I was talking to them about. The blankets are amazing and they will be so useful for the homeless, I believe they will be snapped up within days!
