Welcome to St Mary’s Catholic Primary School. We really are more than Just a School, we are a family Living; Loving; Learning together on a daily basis.  

We pride ourselves on working hard to identify each child’s individual needs, nurture their strengths and provide full support for any development areas. This enables all of our children to reach their full potential and enjoy their schooling with greater confidence. Pupils at St Mary’s making significantly above average progress from their individual starting points.

We believe that as St Oscar Romero said “aspire not to have more but to be more’ and use this to underpin all that we do. Driving all that we do is our mastery and curiosity curriculum and the aim that All St Mary’s Pupils Investigate, Research and Explore in all of their learning journeys. 

We are proud to be a Catholic Academy within the Bosco Catholic Education Trust, but warmly welcome families of all faiths and beliefs, and none.  

We are part of Bosco Catholic Education Trust.
