St Botolph's C of E Primary School
New day...endless possibilities
Excellent school, wonderful and dedicated staff that put children first.... First class education in Shepshed, the Headteacher should be proud of her team and effective leadership!
As always, staff have gone above and beyond to ensure my children have a positive school experience. To see them go from strength to strength in their personal and educational journeys makes me incredibly proud! I will forever be grateful to all staff members who support and guide my children during their time at St Botolph’s. Thank you for another wonderful year!
My daughter enjoys everything she does at school. She loves to come to school. Why would you pick any other school? St Botolph’s is the best! Great staff and teachers who do their very best.
