"I have come that they may have life and have it to the full" John 10 Welcome to St.Wilfrid's Catholic Primary School. We are a Voluntary Aided school in the Diocese of Shrewsbury in the Parish of St.John Vianney. We are proud of our school where the Gospel teachings are at the centre of everything that happens within our school family.
St.Wilfrid's is an inclusive school where the social, emotional, physical and academic needs of each child is met. We strive to develop happy, fulfilled, well educated, confident and caring children who know and understand the love of Jesus.
As Head Teacher of St.Wilfrid's, I know that we are blessed to have a team of dedicated and enthusiastic staff, happy and motivated children who enjoy the support of our Governing Body, families and Parish. St.Wilfrid's is a good school where we will continue to work together to improve the provision of all our children.
