Comments from our recent Ofsted May 2017

The   Executive Principal and Head of School exude a determination to enable every   pupil to achieve his or her potential. Governors, leaders, staff and pupils all share high expectations for   pupils’ achievement and their personal development.

A   ‘learning culture’ is firmly embedded among pupils. In all subjects, pupils are keen to discuss   and debate ideas and approaches. They   are eager to find out more, and determined to improve. Not a minute is wasted in lessons and   pupils readily continue their enquiries and endeavours out of class.

Saint   Augustine’s is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of young people
