Great site. I have many fond memories of SFX which moved to the new site in my last year. My father was headmaster back in those days and i am sure he would be impressed at what a fine school it has become. All the best to staff and pupils.

Really good site which I like to browse from time to time, but sometimes I like to check for information and it is not always there - unfortunately it is often a bit behind with latest school letters and notices. It would be nice to see more updated pictures as well. A small area for improvement on an otherwise excellent site.

I visited your site whilst doing some family history research as my parents had married at the parish church and thought there might be something about the history of the school/church. found your site very nice and its sounds like a lovely school. if any one has any pictures or history of the old st francis xavier church i would be interested.
i went to a catholic school myself (st john bosco and stuart bathurst) and i am very supportive of catholic
education in general, being a gov. at my local rc school (olsk halesowen) and happily providing three pupils too!
keep up the excellent work.

I have two children attending St Franscis and they are very happy. My oldest
daughter as just completed year 6. Over the years I have been very satisfied with this school.
It is very family orientated and encourages parents to fully participate in their children School
life. The most impressive thing for me, is the extra after School lessons, given to the year 6
children during their stats, not many schools offer this type of support. I do feel, because of
this, st Francis stats results are always good.

Thank you so much for showing my colleague and I around your school last Friday
to see all the wonderful work you are doing on sustainability. The pupils who showed us round were
very polite, knowledgable and obviously very proud (rightly so!) of their school. I am trying now
to find other schools who are also doing great work on sustainability in urban areas for you to
link up with. I have also told others in my NCSL team that this is a school to recommend other
schools come to visit.
I look forward to keeping in touch with you all and keep up the great work.
