Holy Family Catholic High School and Sixth Form Centre Welcome to Holy Family Catholic High School. We are a high achieving, 11-18 school, where children feel safe and happy. We aim to create a very supportive and caring environment where each pupil has the self-confidence and belief to realise their ambitions. We are aspirational for all of our young people and strive to meet the needs of every child, irrespective of ability, to ensure they maximise their potential both in and out of the classroom.
Our Mission Statement Inspired by the spirit of God: • • • • •
Holy Family aspires to be a caring Catholic community, Following the example of Jesus, Celebrating our talents and achievements, Having the ambition to be the best we can be, Supporting each other in a secure and safe environment.
The school is well known for its very high academic standards and the warmth of its working relationships. We are committed to providing the best possible education for all our pupils. We are proud of their many achievements and believe that this is based on a strong partnership between school, home, church and the local community.
Leaders, including Governors, promote positive values clearly and consistently. They set and support a culture where pupils are confident, considerate of others and hard working. As a result, pupils enjoy the school and attend regularly. Ofsted
One of our strengths is our size. We are large enough to provide an extensive range of learning opportunities but small enough to get to know our young people and respond to each and every one as a individual. As a consequence our pupils are able to enjoy their learning, develop as caring, well-rounded individuals and equip themselves with the skills and knowledge necessary for them to enjoy fulfilled and happy lives. We hope that our prospectus and website will give you useful information and an insight into our school. We look forward to meeting and working with you. Mr M Symes Headteacher
