Welcome to St Mark's Church of England School. I am privileged to be the Executive Headteacher of the first all-through school in Southampton. St Mark's is truly a wonderful school filled with polite, well-mannered students and excellent staff.
As we grow year on year we are determined to build on our superb primary school foundations, to build a remarkable School which produces high achieving students both academically and socially. As an all-through school we will provide education from 4-16 years old, in the same building.
St Mark's is uniquely placed to ensure the best possible progression for the students throughout the key stages of education, whenever you may join us.
