School Description

Pupils enjoy coming to St Catherine’s Catholic Primary School. They are warmly greeted by their teachers every morning. This helps them to feel safe. Pupils, parents, carers and staff value the ‘family feel’ of the school. Staff have positive relationships with pupils and know them well. Pupils are friendly and welcoming to each other and to adults. They trust staff to deal with any concerns they have about behaviour and bullying, quickly and effectively. Leaders have high expectations of pupils’ learning and behaviour. They place an emphasis on respect. Staff expect pupils to focus on their learning and to be kind and respectful towards each other. Pupils understand and follow these expectations. As a result, most pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), are committed to their learning and achieve well. Pupils are proud of their musical performances in a local church. They recently participated in a Platinum Jubilee concert and a singing workshop. Pupils contribute to life in the community. They make prayer cards and gifts for people who are housebound. These activities help pupils to build confidence and to become active citizens.
