About

Everyone at Scotforth St Pauls plays their part in making our school a success from the experienced and talented staff to super pupils, supportive parents and committed governing body. Our creative curriculum makes learning fun. We have a broad and balanced curriculum in which we love music, drama, art and sport as much as the more traditionally academic subjects.

The practical and engaging way the children are taught ensures that they build on previous learning, make links across subjects and become immersed in their own learning. One fantastic by-product of this is that our assessment results are consistently above the national average.

The exciting teaching creates a fantastic learning environment and fosters brilliant attitudes towards independent learning, which again, ensures the children learn, grow and care as they develop educationally, emotionally and spiritually.

We aim to enable our children to thrive in 21st Century Britain being secure as the unique person they are, and confident in what they can offer the world.
