Welcome 

On behalf of our pupils, staff and governors, I am delighted to welcome you to English Martyrs’ Catholic Primary School. We hope that our website gives you a glimpse into our happy, nurturing school community and the values that guide everything we do.

At English Martyrs’, we are proud to be a warm, inclusive and child-centred school, where every child is recognised as a unique gift from God. Rooted in our Catholic faith, we provide a safe and supportive environment where children are encouraged to grow in confidence, develop their talents and achieve their very best.

We have high expectations for all our pupils and are proud of the strong outcomes they achieve, alongside their development as kind, respectful and responsible young people. Our broad and engaging curriculum inspires a love of learning, while our caring ethos ensures that every child feels valued, happy and ready to flourish.

We place great importance on working in partnership with families, recognising parents as the first educators of their children. Together with our wider community, we create a strong sense of belonging where everyone is welcomed and supported.

Our dedicated staff team are committed to providing the very best opportunities for every child, nurturing not only academic success but also spiritual, moral and personal development. We want our pupils to leave us as confident individuals who can stand firm, show kindness and seek excellence in all that they do.

We are also proud to be part of the Kent Catholic Schools’ Partnership, working alongside other schools to ensure the highest standards of education and care for our children.

It is a privilege to lead such a special school where relationships are strong, achievements are celebrated and every child is encouraged to shine.

We look forward to welcoming you into our English Martyrs’ family. If you would like to find out more, please do not hesitate to contact us—we would be delighted to hear from you.
