Family Friends of St Clare’s
‘Family Friends of St Clare’s has been set up to create opportunities for all parents, family members and friends to play a part in the life and ethos of St Clare’s and the special, unique community we have created, further enriching the lives of our learners.
We are currently a ‘Bronze – Family Friendly’ certified school and are working hard towards achieving ‘Silver- Family Centred’ status.
