St Agatha’s Catholic Primary School is an inclusive school serving the local community since 1895. We welcome families from all faiths and countries and we create a close-knit community that works together.

At St Agatha’s we believe that all children thrive in an environment in which they are happy, challenged and secure: happy in the knowledge they are each appreciated for their individuality and their achievements, challenged to achieve their best and secure in the knowledge they are safe and cared for.

• We have high expectations of all our children in every aspect of school life.
• We enable them each to achieve their potential through high standards of behaviour and outstanding learning experiences.
• We aim to develop skills for life and independence, recognising their individual responsibility as a member of our learning community.
• We encourage self-confidence and nurture core moral values based upon the teachings of Jesus Christ.

We provide an environment that is stimulating and exciting with learning opportunities inside and outside the classroom, and work in close partnership with parents and carers, who play a vital role in the education of their children.

Our vision remains rooted in our mission statement and our Christian faith, which is central to every part of our lives – from the way we treat each other, how we look for every day opportunities to help those in need, and in the example we give to those we meet.

The life of St Agatha’s School is centred on our Catholic faith, in which we proclaim the Gospel values such as love, peace and justice, which influence all our activities and relationships.

We value and encourage the uniqueness of each child and recognise that everyone has a positive contribution to make to the life of the school community.

We value worshipping and celebrating together, sharing our Christian witness and building upon the foundations already established at home where parents are the first educators of their children.

We aim to:

• Encourage the spiritual development and prayer life of each child and help them to develop their relationship with God
• Offer a place where differences and problems are talked through and prayed through together and where success is shared and celebrated
• Provide a secure and happy environment where quality teaching and learning can take place
• Deliver a curriculum that meets the intellectual, physical and creative needs of each child as well as delivering spiritual, emotional and pastoral care
• Foster respect for, and recognise the rights of, others regardless of gender, race or ability and to offer equal opportunities to all
• Value the contribution of home, school, parish, community and diocese in our daily lives
