Appropriate provision is made for the moral, emotional, physical intellectual and special needs of pupils at each stage in their development.   

The school strives to create a climate where lessons are entirely focused on learning and believes that it achieves this by achieving outstanding behaviour in its pupils.. It seeks to offer every person the opportunity to be a unique and valued individual, sharing and developing belief in the teachings of Jesus through everyday relationships and mutual respect in dealings with one another.
