What People Say
“We would like to thank you for all the help, support and encouragement given to our daughter over her years at the Minster School. She has really appreciated the enthusiasm and the discussions she had with her subject teachers and has benefited from their experience and knowledge. Our daughter has now fulfilled her ambition of achieving a place at Cambridge University”
Parents of a Year 13 Student
“The Minster School has a really fantastic ethos of caring. It cares about the children, it shares the information with parents, it lets the parents get involved should they want and it gets involved in the local community. When I read the newsletter I often have a tear in my eye as I read about the activities and charities the children have got involved with locally. This in turn reflects on the children who care about others.”
Parent
“The Minster Junior School offered my son a unique opportunity to develop his musical abilities. His love of music has been nurtured and he is now more accomplished and confident then I could ever have imagined.”
