We have published the provisional assessment data for the government tests and assessments that children are required to access at St. John's for summer 2024.
Once again we are really pleased that hundreds of children have achieved to their best abilities. We know that St. John's is about much more than the government tests and the rest of our website celebrates lots of other fantastic opportunities that children have at our wonderful school.
School are legally required to share assessment data with parents and we hope that our website helps parents access information that they want to see.

Unfortunately we have had to cancel the colour run that was due to take place tomorrow on Wednesday 17th July.

The PTFA are at present considering options about what could potentially be done to replace the event and to consider any potential refunds. Please keep checking the PTFA website for more information about this.
