School Values/Ethos

Our School Mission Statement is "Faith in Education"

Our school is a welcoming Christ centred community, committed to the development of faith, worship and education by…

•  Providing all members of the school community with the opportunity to experience God’s loving care; in an atmosphere where every individual feels loved and valued.
• Creating a secure, enriching place of learning where all are inspired and empowered to develop their talents and skills, achieving their true potential as unique individuals.
•  Fostering positive relationships with home, parish and the wider community, in order to create an environment where kindness, justice, tolerance, forgiveness and friendship are unconditional and inclusive.

St Mary’s is a safe place where we can all belong, feeling confident, equipped and excited to embrace the future.

Our Values Curriculum

The curriculum at St Mary’s is rich and diverse and offers our students opportunities to explore, reason, engage and learn about the wider world whilst preparing them for life in modern Britain.

We plan and deliver a values based curriculum to  ensure that we are consciously and explicitly teaching British Values alongside our core Christian Values which, as a school centred on faith, are those which shape our character and moral perspective.
