My child was a pupil here for 2 years before returning to a small village primary school in the Uk. She left St Chris with an exemplary report with no areas of concern cited.

When she started at her new school in the Uk, we found she was so far behind her peers that in an ideal world she should have repeated the previous year. It has taken 3 years of hard work, on her part and that of her teachers and us to get her back up to a level where she is now in the top half of her class.

My sons learnt very little here. We're lucky that we were able to return to the UK and send the boys to a normal secondary school. We were told the truth and the boys made improvements. This school needs to be honest to parents. In a parents' meeting, my son's teacher didn't know his name. He was their primary tutor too. All the school apparently knew he was lazy, but no one did anything about it.

This school has gone down hill over the last 5 years or so and has lost its way. Once held in high regard as "the" private school on the island, this is no longer the case.

Seldom will you see a school where the pupils are so unhappy and in constant fear of being reprimanded for being children. The school holds the children accountable to high standards but rarely does the school itself meet such standards itself in its staffing, their attitude or the facilities.

Their approach is incredibly inflexible with teachers and faculty staff incapable of adapting to different learning styles or personalities. In fact, they would rather the children don't have personalities at all.

The number of mistakes made by staff is unacceptable (and never admitted to, corrected or apologised for) and the number of staff that hold grudges against specific children is embarrassing and unprofessiona... read full review
