Values and Vision
The ethos of our school “to inspire excellence by encouraging every individual to be the person that God calls us to be” celebrates every individual within our school community. We encourage all members of the community - staff and students, to try their best in all situations, celebrating their successes as individuals and collectively through the nurture, care, and guidance we provide for them.
By ensuring our focus is on developing every individual, our students make exceptional progress in all aspects of their education. Our students’ outcomes year on year exceed the national average in all measures which we are very proud about – consistently amongst the highest-ranking schools in Leeds. However, we also celebrate the individual success that our students have – be that through extra-curricular participation, their contribution to the Catholic Life of the school, their ability to contribute to the school community through countless leadership roles, their participation in a full range of educational trips and visits… the list is endless.
Our students leave our school with the qualifications, work ethic and resilience to thrive in Post 16 – the majority of our students progress to Notre Dame Catholic Sixth Form College in Leeds and continue to thrive.
