At St Cecilia’s, our vision is unified and shared.
We are a caring Catholic school with high standards and expectations for all our pupils, rooted in the Gospel values that we model and build our lives upon.
We are expanding - £1.6M of building works commenced in September 2023 with four new classrooms being built and other classrooms being modified.
Our GCSE results in September 2023 are some of the best results ever.
We believe all our pupils have the potential to discover, develop and rejoice in their God given talents and abilities, whilst answering to their faith as individuals, and actively responding to God’s call to work towards a common good.
We promote forgiveness and encourage resilience, ensuring pupils do not give up and persist in the face of setbacks when they occur.
Our curriculum promotes a broad range of knowledge and skills, allowing each child to discover and pursue their own interests and passions. It equips pupils with the skills and knowledge needed for them to understand, interpret, and flourish in the world in which they live; this goes beyond exam success.
The curriculum is our progression model; instructing our pupils how they can ‘better’ at each subject.
Our school is a happy and safe place where pupils thrive.
Pupils are proud to be part of our community and the community are proud of St Cecilia’s.
We are restless and always looking to improve, but we are not driven by ‘fads. Staff are supported to progress professionally through a comprehensive CPD programme that is founded in research.
We continuously strive to provide the highest standards in everything we do. We provide a positive learning environment that enables pupils to learn and teachers to do their job well, through a robust and well implemented behaviour recovery system.
Teaching and Learning is the key focus for our school. Teachers work collaboratively to find creative solutions and share good practice. We try to ensure that CPD is driven by need and cohesive, not simply dictated from the top. If something is proven to work, then we will take the necessary time to embed it rather than shifting from one focus to the next.
We provide a robust but low threat system for quality assuring T&L allowing staff the freedom to try new things and not being afraid to fail.
We promote and sustain intellectual curiosity, an enthusiasm for learning from others, for both staff and pupils. We are a great school that do ordinary things extraordinarily well.
Honesty is key to our community; we will always admit where there are weaknesses, promote trust and phronesis at all levels. This is what drives us forward in our pursuit of sustained academic excellence and in the formation of our pupils.
The Governors have a close relationship with the school and are proud to be associated with it.
