Saint Anne’s is a Catholic, Voluntary Aided Primary School in the parish of Saint Anne’s, Alcester Street, Birmingham.

It is one of the most historic Catholic schools in Birmingham, founded in the late 19th century by John Henry Newman. It opened on its present site in 1957.

The school caters for up to 210 children aged between 4 and 11 years.

Since we are a Catholic School, Religious Education and the Christian ethos are central, and it is expected that all staff, parents and children will be fully involved in this crucial aspect of our school life.

We accept children of other faiths and recognise the need to prepare all children for life in a multi-cultural society.

Family Mission Statement

At Saint Anne's we look to Jesus as our guide in praying and learning, as we strive to achieve excellence in all our God given talents. Each one of us is special as we accept and respect one another as children of God.

Our School Values

Religious virtues demonstrate how children can improve their living and learning as children of Christ.

At different points throughout the year there will be a focus in school on particular virtues that we will explore in lessons, liturgies and assemblies. These are:

• Grateful and Generous
• Attentive and Discerning
• Compassionate and Loving
• Faith-filled and Hopeful
• Eloquent and Truthful
• Learned and Wise
