Values and Vision

The Holy Family bases itself on three basic principles – awakening minds with its strong focus on the school faith, achieving dreams through hard work towards a high quality of curriculum and serving others as strong upholders of Catholic values. It aims to be a school that mixes the best of old and new, basing itself on traditional values while giving its learners an education that is current and relevant to 21st century Britain.

Ofsted

“Leaders and governors have worked very effectively to create a coherent and mutually respectful school community. Pupils are happy and proud of their school and the way it supports them. Behaviour is good and those pupils who find the high expectations at the school challenging are well and effectively supported by committed and knowledgeable staff.  Senior leaders have now put in place systems to address the variability in the quality of teaching and pupils’ outcomes.”
