Head Teacher's Message

Welcome to St Patrick’s school website which acts as an introduction to our school, giving you a flavour of the environment and an impression of our school life. St Patrick’s is a rich and diverse learning community where achievements and success go hand in hand. Our aim is to provide every opportunity in a Christian environment for our children to emerge as confident, articulate and independent young people.

SEND Provision

St Patrick's has an inclusive SEND approach with early intervention. Staff deliver Quality First Teaching through adaptations; progress is carefully and regularly tracked; if a pupil does not make sufficient progress, external services may be involved, and after consultation with parents a request for an Education Health and Care Plan may be considered.
