"To love, to serve and learn."
St Edward's Catholic Primary School teaches Religious Education as a rigorous academic subject and the Catholic life of the school is expressed through Masses, assemblies, class liturgy and close collaboration with the parish. The school prepares children to receive the sacraments of First Forgiveness and Holy Communion, and daily prayer and worship are central to the daily rhythm. The environment reflects Catholic belief, and the school emphasises living out faith through curriculum, celebrations and care for one another.
A welcome message from Headteacher Mrs A. Snell, emphasising a happy, well-behaved school community with caring staff, a Catholic ethos, high standards, a stimulating and diverse education, and opportunities for parents to be involved in school life.
There is a sharp focus on phonics for our youngest children and a programme of support is in place for any older children who may need additional help, these may be SEND, EAL or new to country.
