St Mary’s Primary School, provides a welcoming, attractive and stimulating environment, which supports pupils’ learning, and celebrates their academic and non-academic achievements. We provide a broad and balanced curriculum, which develops the skills, concepts and knowledge, necessary for future learning and living. To assist us in our efforts we work in close partnership with our parents. Our staff, through their enthusiasm, dedication and hard work, support the pupils, and provide effective education for all of them, in all aspects of their development. We enable our pupils to reach their full potential irrespective of race, gender, age or ability.
We want our children
to develop as confident, disciplined and enquiring learners, able to make informed choices and decisions.
to enjoy reading and to develop a confidence with language which will enable them to communicate effectively with others.
to develop the skills and knowledge of mathematics to enable them to cope confidently with everyday situations
to know and understand their world through scientific, historical, geographical and religious inquiry and to come to an understanding of their responsibilities to care for the environment
to develop practical, creative, artistic and physical skills.

- the aims of Catholic education
