Choosing your child’s school is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. The purpose of this prospectus is to inform you about our school ethos, standards, range and quality of education available to every child in our school. As a Catholic school, the basis of our mission is to value and respect every person as an individual, made in the image of Christ. High standards of behaviour are a basic requirement of all pupils within our school. Children are actively encouraged to participate fully in school life by contributing ideas through the school council. Strong emphasis is placed on pastoral care and all staff are fully committed to promoting the well-being of every child. The nurturing of this positive attitude is essential if pupils are to become successful learners, striving for excellence and achievement in all areas of the curriculum.
Our pupils have the opportunity to engage in a range of activities in school and outside school session times. During school time children are taken out on visits to places of educational interest to enhance what they have learnt in the classroom.
