About The McAuley Catholic High School and Sixth Form

Our school is like no other.  You will hear messages about what state education can be like that you will not hear at any other school in the Doncaster area.  A bold claim!

Our Catholic school community has a shared understanding that God has given everyone unique gifts.  As such, our job is to help realise and then nurture those gifts whatever they may be, wherever they are yet to be found.

Our Job is to give children the opportunity to shine in whatever they do.

The way we do this is by firstly ensuring that children feel safe and secure in school by having firm and high expectations of social and learning behaviours.  We also value the vital contribution that parents make to this important task.  This we believe is the starting point in beginning to build community and achieve success.

Our community is built upon the creation of exceptionally strong relationships supportive between every adult and child and the role of form tutor is key to this.  There relationships are uniquely forged in Form worship, celebrating Mass, attending liturgies and performing acts of charity.

There is movement between sites to enable students to access specialist facilities and rooms that are appropriate to the sizes of teaching groups.  Despite its split-site nature, the school functions as an integrated unit and we are proud to retain our identity as one school community.
