St.Martin dePorres Catholic School A Faith-Filled Legacy in Moseley Founded on the principles of Catholic education, St.Martin dePorres Catholic School in Moseley, Birmingham, is a vibrant community where Christ is at the heart of everything we do.
Inspired by our patron saint's humility and compassion, we strive to nurture every child's spiritual, academic, and personal growth. From its beginning in the 1960s, the school has been dedicated to forming young people in the light of the Gospel.
Daily prayer, regular Mass, and a rich sacramental life are woven into our curriculum, ensuring that faith is not just taught but lived. We aim to help every child discover their God-given gifts and use them in service to others. At St.Martin dePorres, education is more than knowledge it's a journey of faith, hope, and love.
We invite families to join us in building a community where every child grows closer to God while achieving their full potential.
