Welcome

A warm welcome awaits you at St Mary & St Michael's Catholic Primary School

Welcome to St Mary & St Michael's Catholic Primary School. We believe passionately in the education and opportunities we provide for our children and place Christ at the centre of everything we do. Our desire is for every child in school to have the very best experience and opportunities they can – in everything! Our children will remember their time here in years to come; happy and fond memories they can treasure for ever.   

Our children have the very best academic start in their education and our dedicated and enthusiastic team inspire a love of learning throughout. This is enhanced by creative, environmental, spiritual, enriched and social opportunities ensuring that they develop wholly in every area, into compassionate, young people of the future.

We are so proud of our school community and we acknowledge that our parent's are the first educators of our children.  We work together to help and support our children and have close links  between school and home. We see our school as a family and have links with the parish and wider community.

We hope you find our website and information about our school useful and informative. Should you wish to visit school in person, please do not hesitate to contact us to make a mutually convenient appointment to take a look around our caring and welcoming school. All children and their families are most welcome.

Headteacher

' We love coming to school each morning, we like the fact that we are helpful, kind and hardworking. Our teachers are nice and we are encouraged to use our manners. We share, we smile and we learn. We show respect, follow rules and always try hard. Everyone is treated fairly and we feel safe and cared for. We love our school!'

Pupil comments from questionnaires

'This is a happy and welcoming school. According to pupils, everyone ‘fits in’ and gets along well with each other. Pupils feel safe and enjoy coming to school. Leaders have high expectations for pupils’ academic and personal development. Pupils achieve well because leaders have organised a broad curriculum that helps them to build on their learning. Pupils are polite and respectful with each other and adults. They display positive attitudes to learning and they behave well.'
