Extract from our Ofsted report:

“This is a good school. It lives its vision statement that, ‘We let our light shine at St Barnabas’. As pupils point out, the school is not only good, but it is also getting better and it already has some outstanding features. ‘Brilliant school!’ is the verdict of the school council.”
