Our Catholic mission

Our skilled staff act as role models for all our students.  The curriculum and learning experience is rooted in the Gospel values and is at the heart of all we do.  We have fostered a culture of spirituality, dignity and moral purpose and expect everyone in our school community to treat each other with the love and respect that Jesus himself showed to others. Through our Catholic Social Teaching and our commitment to charity work we encourage a culture of putting others before ourselves

Is to educate, develop and inspire

We embody a culture of excellence and professionalism. Through our knowledge-engaged curriculum we provide all students with a breadth of opportunities to enhance their life chances and empower them beyond school life. The curriculum fosters a love of learning and is well delivered by highly skilled subject experts. Our commitment to professional development is high and comprises internal high-quality CPD, coaching programmes as well as nationally recognised external programmes such as the NPQs (National Professional Qualifications).

 

Our wider curriculum includes a plethora of opportunities for all students to enhance their own experiences and understandings of the world around them. The super learning day and tutor programmes incorporate metacognitive skills through our behaviour and character curriculum, as well as developing students’ knowledge of careers, financial management, an understanding of current affairs, RSHE and literacy.
