St. Edward's Primary School

Our Catholic School

Our Catholic Faith is at the heart of all that we do.

Led by the indominable Mother Catherine McAuley, the school was founded by the Sisters of Mercy in 1864. We are proud to have long and deeply rooted connection to our local community and parish, while welcoming children and their families from around the world. Although the Sisters no longer teach at the school, they are regular visitors, actively participating in, and enriching our Catholic Life.

All pupils are equally valued, respected and nurtured through our school mission statement: 'To help one person grow is to help build the world'. Guided by the values of Catholic Social Teaching, we celebrate and promote pride in our Catholic identity through respect and tolerance for pupils of all faiths and none.  The links and support from our parish priest Canon Kevin, is excellent, supporting the school community with our liturgical and Eucharistic experience and understanding. Pupils are actively involved in supporting those in need and proactive in supporting charities locally, nationally and internationally. 

Each week, our students engage in meaningful activities that embody the teachings of Christ. Whether it’s our enriching Prayer and Liturgy sessions, community outreach projects, or simply lending a helping hand to a fellow classmate, we strive to live out the message of love and service. Our parents and carers of all faiths strongly value the ways in which we nurture the faith and spiritual life of all children. The partnerships between school, parents, parish, governors and the diocese speaks of our commitment to ensuring that Catholic Life remains at the heart of everything we do.
