Welcome Text

"The behaviour and attitudes of pupils are exemplary. The quality of relationships, at all levels, is outstanding, with pastoral care for all maintained as a high priority within the Catholic life and mission of the school" (section 48 March 2023)

Our aim is to provide the best possible standards for the children in our care by creating challenging, stimulating and inspirational teaching and learning through a warm and welcoming environment. We believe that working as a team ensures that standards of attainment and achievement remain high. We offer exciting and rewarding professional development opportunities to all our staff and the strong bond of mutual respect and teamwork which exists, supports the aims and ethos of the school. The aspirations which we have for our children are high and we strive to encourage each one of them to reach their full potential. Our high expectations start with effective Teaching and Learning, discipline and behaviour. We expect all our staff, pupils and parents to behave in a way that supports respect and understanding for all. We settle for nothing less than good!

If you are a new parent we would welcome the opportunity for you to come and have a look for yourself to experience the special nurturing atmosphere, warmth and commitment to ensuring that the years spent by pupils in the school are happy and productive.

At St Francis Xavier Catholic Primary School, we provide an environment for our community that enables each unique member to feel valued and become stronger as we embrace challenge and change. We let God’s love inspire us and his Word guide us, as we grow together as a community in our enthusiasm for excellence In all that we do.

Best wishes. Mrs Bernadette Nesbit, Executive Headteacher
