About Saint George Catholic Voluntary Aided College

St George Catholic College was graded Outstanding in all areas by OFSTED in June 2023. It is an oversubscribed school, with a proven track record of continued success currently ranked in the top 150 schools nationally for progress. It is a college in which we have a commitment to knowing every student and ensuring they fulfil their potential. We see ourselves as a family who are determined to get the best out of each other. In our 2023 OFSTED report it stated that “This is a truly inclusive and welcoming school. The school’s ASPIRE values are understood and treasured by the whole community. Leaders have established a highly aspirational culture where pupils want to work hard and achieve well. Pupils are supported to do their best by teachers who they share warm and respectful relationships with.” The latest Catholic school’s inspection in May 2023 also judged the school’s Catholic Life and Mission to be outstanding.
