For over forty years St. Joseph’s has provided Christian education for boys and girls of all abilities. As a small faith school we are proud of the fact that every pupil is known and valued. 

Our aim is to provide a caring environment where individuals will flourish and develop in self-confidence. 

Above all our school is rooted in Gospel values. Although a majority of our pupils are not catholic we aim to provide
everyone in our care with an educational experience which has a strong moral and spiritual message. 

Our community is living and breathing, shaped by the people who belong to it, reflecting their attitudes and ambitions.
We believe that the high standards of behaviour we expect from pupils helps them to develop self-discipline and a moral basis on which to build their lives. 

We have a growing reputation in the local community as a school that is constantly striving for new heights of excellence in everything that we do. 

In 2011 the school was inspected by Ofsted who described the school in their overall evaluation as follows; 

‘This is a school that provides good quality education in a caring and warm environment’. 

Visitors to St. Joseph’s often comment on the happy atmosphere in the school and how friendly and welcoming they find the environment. 

Please come and see for yourself the work that we do and the developments that are taking place. 

You will see that being part of St. Joseph’s means looking towards the future with excitement and a philosophy of continuous improvement for the benefit of all pupils.
