Mission Statement

As a Catholic school community we strive to live as a Christian family, showing our love for God in the way we treat each other with dignity and respect, and by promoting the development of each child as a unique individual.

The Aims and Objectives of Our Mission Statement
These aims and objectives which arise from our mission statement are determined by our obligations to our pupils, parents, parish and community.

To ensure that our school is a place where Christian values are central to the lives of the whole school community.

We will fulfil this by:

  • creating a school atmosphere and tradition within which is developed a sense of pride, identity and purpose by each individual pupil, members of staff and parents.
  • encouraging behaviour which shows respect for everyone and contributes to successful learning both in and outside the classroom.
  • joining together to worship.
  • treating everyone with dignity and respect, and so showing our love of God and each other.

To maintain a caring school community in which each individual is given a sense of security and personal recognition.

We will fulfil this by:

  • enabling every pupil to achieve their full potential in academic progress and achievement.
  • endeavouring to be an inclusive school for those with special needs by encouraging and resourcing pupils who find aspects of their learning difficult.
  • encouraging our children to recognise and appreciate achievement in all its forms, and help them to fulfil their own personal ambitions and aspirations by developing lively and enquiring minds.

To foster the understanding and support of parents and the wider community.

We will fulfil this through:

  • involving parents in our broad and balanced curriculum, and through the provision of opportunities for our children to acquire the skills and experience necessary to ensure lifelong learning.
  • spreading the Gospel values of love, justice and peace, through our prayer life, our support for charities and our involvement in the local community.
