St Edward’s Catholic Primary School is built on the foundations of Love, Respect, Kindness, Trust, Forgiveness and Achievement, through which our children develop their love of God, themselves and others. Our vision is for all families and children to feel welcomed, loved and nurtured, whether they are Catholic, of other faiths or none. We desire to see happy, contented and confident children flourishing in an environment where everyone is valued and respected.

We aspire to deliver a broad and balanced curriculum creating culturally literate children. Our subject specific curriculum enables all children, irrespective of their starting points in life, to have the knowledge of key cultural events, people or places that are fundamental to British society. For example, we teach children about Shakespeare as well as key figures in history. We know that reading is at the heart of all learning so from an early age we teach children to read and create a love of listening to read texts as well as a love of books.

We celebrate achievement in every way and in non-academic subjects, as well as the core. Our inclusion team is established to support all children not just in academic areas; as such Emotional literacy, our Personal, social and health education and child counselling work together to develop the ‘whole child’.
