As a Roman Catholic school we create an atmosphere in which children can grow into the fullness of their faith. We develop their understanding of, and respect for, people of all faiths and cultures. We value parents as children’s first teachers.  We aim to educate our pupils in every way so that they are friendly, spiritual and caring individuals who enjoy learning and achieve their potential in all areas. We provide a welcoming, safe environment in which children learn to speak and behave properly and to care for and comfort others.

Government guidance for parents

Regular attendance and punctuality is important to secure academic achievement. Attendance at school is mandatory and it is the parents’ duty to make sure that their child of compulsory school age regularly attends. As a school we expect 96% attendance (as a minimum) for each pupil. There will, however, be circumstances where pupils cannot attend due to ill health.
