On behalf of our school community, I would like to extend a warm welcome to our website.

 

Here at St. Margaret Clitherow Catholic Primary School, our mission is for all children to develop a love of learning as they are encouraged to develop their own unique gifts and talents whilst becoming confident and independent learners. We strive to ensure that the members of our community are happy and fulfilled in their lives at school.

 

As part of their faith journey, we give each child the inspiration and tools, which are firmly rooted in the teaching and Gospel values of Jesus, to further develop their faith and the love of Jesus Christ. We see each child as a unique member of our community and seek to ensure that they are a valued member of God's family. All children are encouraged to grow in their ability to make informed decisions about the choices they make in life and to become life-long learners, achieving their own individual potential.

 

We encourage our children to be citizens who truly care about the wider community and to understand their place in the world and the impact that each and everyone of them can make. Our children have pride in their school and are great ambassadors for all we stand for.

 

If you would like to join our school, you are very welcome to visit us as it is only by entering the school, you will see our Mission Statement in action.

'Love - Faith - Grow'

 

We act with love, build our faith and grow as people.

 

Love - Our care for one another and enjoyment of learning.

Faith - Our trust in God and belief in ourselves.

Grow - Our journey of growth and being the best we can be.

 

The mission and ethos of our school values are entrenched in everything we do. Children are given opportunities to live out the Gospel Values through the RE curriculum and Catholic Social Teaching they are involved with. The behaviour at the school underpins our high standards and all support the children in this. This ensures that all children have a safe environment to pray, learn and enjoy their time in school.

Phonics and Early Reading are at the core of the curriculum to ensure the children get off to the best starting in literacy. 

 

All learners have rich opportunities across a full and balanced curriculum. Children with SEN need are well supported and we have inclusive opportunities for all children. We have a sports specialist who ensures all children have a chance to be involved and represent their school across the year. We have close local links with South Hill Park to support and provide additional opportunities for the children in art, DT and drama.
