Vision and values
The primary school’s motto is: “To develop everyone’s full potential by learning and working together through Christ.” It aims to provide a secure learning environment which ensures the health and safety of all. Teachers seek to nurture and promote the Roman Catholic faith within the school’s six main attitudes: perseverance, co-operation, independence, enthusiasm, responsibility and purposefulness. The school was judged as “good” in its 2013 Ofsted inspection.
Ofsted report
“Good progress continues throughout the school and pupils’ attainment by the time they leave the school is above average in both English and mathematics. School data indicate that current pupils’ attainment is on course to rise still further in this year's national tests. The proportion of pupils who make and exceed their expected progress now compares favourably with the national average, although this has not been consistently so over time.”
“The quality of teaching is good over time and this is reflected in pupils’ consistently good progress in all year groups. It is also reflected in records of checks on teaching by school leaders and external advisors. The vast majority of teaching observed during the inspection was good. Some was outstanding.”
