May I take this opportunity to welcome you to our community and to thank you for choosing The Federation of St Elphege's Catholic Schools.

We are an expanding school of approximately 750 pupils and provide education for children from the age of three to eleven. The school opened in 1969 and recently celebrated it's 55th anniversary. It is a successful and inclusive school.

The Infant and Junior schools federated in September 2006. St Elphege's federated again with Regina Coeli in November 2014 and is now known as The Federation of St. Elphege's and Regina Coeli Catholic Schools.

At the heart of our school life and curriculum is our Mission Statement. It colours all our aims and is reflected in the day-to-day running of our school.

My staff and the Chairman of Governors, Mr Tom Tamplin and the governing body of the school look forward to meeting you. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Executive Head teacher

With the help of God’s love, the Federation of St Elphege’s and Regina Coeli Catholic Schools will seek to develop the whole child. Each child is uniquely created and precious to God and it is the Federation’s mission, guided by the Holy Spirit, to nurture each child’s spiritual, moral and academic growth.

Inspired by the teachings of Christ we will:

• Develop our children’s faith, spirituality and joy in the love of God
• Educate our children to the highest standards thus realising their own potential
• Instil in our children the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed and take pride in their achievements recognising we each have special gifts and talents
• Encourage everyone to be more than they thought possible, in a secure and loving environment
• Promote a caring community where we will all behave well. We will be dignified in our actions, demonstrating good manners, tolerance, kindness and generosity to ourselves and others
• Prepare our children today to become tomorrow’s responsible and independent individuals equipped to face life’s challenges
• Ensure our Federation is a happy, safe and welcoming place where we all enjoy learning, work hard, support one another and do our best
• Create an active partnership of love, joy and high expectations between children, parents, carers, staff, governors, parishes and the wider community

The Federation consists of St. Elphege’s Infant School and St. Elphege’s Junior School. Our schools are friendly and caring places where we enjoy good relationships between dedicated staff, pupils, parents, governors, parishes and local community.

The schools welcome families and staff from the Catholic faith, as well as those from many other faith backgrounds and those of no faith. Our community is exceptionally diverse yet beautifully cohesive; we embrace and celebrate the richness that such diversity brings. This is reflected in our staff teams where dedicated and enthusiastic professionals from a range of backgrounds, cultures and faiths work harmoniously to ensure the best possible provision for the children in our care.
