Testimonials

“… our heartfelt thanks for welcoming Stella and Harry to The Manor so generously. It has been an absolutely wonderful Autumn term, starting in Summer clothes and ending in woollen hats and snow. Our children have thrived, made big steps academically and so many new friends. We’re incredibly grateful.”

 

I’m now in Year 6 and I know I’m going to be really sad to leave at the end of this school year. I absolutely LOVE the Manor. I’ve learnt so much and made great friends and amazing memories. It’s a really happy and special place to be.

A truly unique school with its amazing community and spirit that permeates every aspect of our school life. Whether it’s the teachers, the staff, the students, or the parents, we are all members of a community that promotes respect, courage, and confidence, among other values.

“Can I thank you on behalf of our girls for what a success this term has been so far. I was really impressed with the schools adoption of the new normal in the Spring last year… but this term is even more sophisticated, and I hadn’t expected that such a big improvement was possible for what they are getting now is even more remarkable. Well done to the whole team for crafting such an educationally and pastorally supportive atmosphere.”

“Your staff are AMAZING… They have truly gone over and above to make my little girl feel valued, respected and part of the team. She leaves your school as a confident, happy and independent 11 year old.”

“We feel incredibly lucky that the kids are getting the best possible support from The Manor. They miss school and we know that whenever they are able to return they will be thrilled”.

“Today was a fantastic day, the feedback from Florence was ‘that’s how you do it’! Being on Google Meets for the whole lesson made it feel more like you were in the classroom, with quick answers to questions… you have a very happy student and very appreciative parents.”

“The Manor has taught me how to enjoy life and pursue my dreams. It has given me best friends and friendly teachers. To be leaving soon feels impossible: the Manor is a very special place.”

“As a family, our journey through The Manor has been such a beautiful one. I will never forget the first day we came for our meeting with Mrs Heyworth who interviewed our daughter. At the time, she was 7 years old and yet could hardly read and write and had such little confidence but I knew that The Manor was the perfect environment for her… I am so very grateful to The Manor for the amazing values of confidence, self-belief, compassion, determination, ambition and resilience that has been infused in her over the course of the last 4 years.”

“The Manor is a very special place. It challenges you to be the best you can be, whilst enjoying yourself and making memories that will last a lifetime. When I joined I didn’t believe in myself, but over the two short years that I have been here, with the help of the fantastic teachers – believe it or not, I have actually grown – in height and as a person. So when I leave, I will no longer be the child that doesn’t believe in herself.”

“We love working here. Not only are the staff so welcoming, but the students share their views with confidence, curiosity and an eagerness to know more. This is a truly special school.”

“I joined the Manor at the start of Year 5 and it has changed who I am in lots of good ways. I am now more open and confident and have grown a love of reading (I never liked it before!). I feel like I have more friends and enjoy my lessons every day.”

“Knowing that our children are experiencing the best possible school they could be at, is the greatest feeling as a parent – so thank you, to you and your wonderful team.”

“The Manor has taught me how to be me, helping me to make friends and work with different people. In my time at the Manor, I have learnt to respect myself and other people, as well as doing the best I can do! The Manor has taught me that in any situation, it is best to just be yourself!”

“The Manor has been amazing ever since our daughter Joined in Year 3. The school has exceeded all expectations we had and more! Our daughter has really reached her full potential. The Manor has been so brilliant in supporting her, she really couldn’t have done it without all the support she had from all of the staff. Our only wish is that she could stay on until she is 18! Thank you to everyone at The Manor.”

“The Manor has helped me develop my love of sport and gain confidence on and off the pitch. The PE staff helped me qualify to compete at the British Biathlon and has been really supportive of my county swimming commitments.”

Her determination has also grown, as shown most obviously in the result she has achieved with the offer of a place at St Helens”….“Thank you for allowing her to flourish and develop in the way that she has. It is a credit to the school, …. it is a very special place with a very special culture. Long may it continue!”
