Where we Belong, Believe and Achieve
Headteacher's Welcome
A warm welcome to St. James' Catholic Primary - a wonderful, inclusive, nurturing school where children come first and are at the heart of all we do.
Everyone needs to belong, and at St. James’ that is exactly how you feel! Each member of our school family plays a pivotal role in ensuring every child feels safe, is heard, and valued.
We believe in our children and in turn, through our faith teachings, they recognise their self- worth. Our children and staff live out our gospel values of respect, trust, care, compassion, tolerance and forgiveness, on a daily basis.
In order for children to achieve, we endeavour to celebrate each child’s unique qualities and attributes. We foster skills such as perseverance, resilience and confidence so they have high aspirations, develop a strong character and the ability to conquer their dreams!
We pride ourselves on our strong links with families, governors, local schools and the wider community. We are extremely proud of our bespoke, knowledge-based curriculum which is designed to allow learning to 'stick' across the primary years and beyond, with children 'knowing more, remembering more and doing more'.
Our personal development is the best. We facilitate 'hands on' practical experiences and enrichment activities at every opportunity. There is a real 'buzz' of excitement at St. James’ and our children are curious, interested and passionate.
We are a happy team. We encourage you to come and visit to experience the friendly, caring ethos, which permeates throughout the school.
You will always be welcome.
