Welcome to Our Catholic Community
St. Mary’s is a Catholic academy where prayer and reflection are woven into the fabric of the Academy’s life. The universal message of the Church and its call to new life encourages us to value every individual as precious in God’s sight. The distinctive education offered at the Academy includes the continuing development of morals and Christian values.
At St. Mary’s we pride ourselves on placing the child at the centre of everything that we do. Our key to success is building relationships that create a sense of mutual worth and a shared goal in creating an outstanding Academy.
Our Vision
St. Mary’s Catholic Academy is a secure, caring community with a clear focus on learning.
The school’s distinctive curriculum seeks to provide the experiences that help create a community of enthusiastic and increasingly independent learners. The attainment of all students is a matter of pride, and good results across all ages and abilities reflect this enthusiasm. The school, designated as a Mathematics and Computing Specialist, aims to develop innovative and high quality teaching and learning across the curriculum. St. Mary’s Catholic Academy provides an extended and enriching curriculum. Using creative and innovative teaching styles, incorporating developing technologies, the school seeks to challenge and support all students to achieve their individual potential. We promote the use of Mathematics and ICT across our curriculum.
The school recognises the importance of working closely with parents and students, parishes and primary schools towards excellence. We strive to work in close partnership with our family of schools, with our local community and business sharing our specialist facilities and resources. By developing and disseminating good practice, especially in the teaching and learning of Mathematics and Computing, all learners will benefit.
There is a calm, tolerant and supportive atmosphere in which talents are developed and weaknesses understood. The Christian spirituality of the school is reflected in curriculum, liturgy, prayer and practice. These important aspects of our community nurture students on their unique journey of faith.
The governing body and school leaders promote a shared vision and common purpose. School development planning, self-review and evaluation translate this vision into a process of continuous improvement.
Structured programmes for all students, a caring pastoral system and excellent facilities ensure that St. Mary’s remains a popular choice. The school environment is pleasant and well maintained. Classrooms and specialist areas enhance learning. Effective displays throughout the buildings celebrate the range and vigour of all aspects of school life. This range and vigour is further seen in the full programme of extra-curricular activities that enrich our students’ lives and further enhance the reputation of the school.
