Thank you for visiting our school website. We are St Edmund's RC Primary School and I am very proud to be the Headteacher of this wonderful school. We are a hub of faith, kindness and creativity and we are proud to serve the Parish of Holy Trinity in the community of Little Hulton. As a Roman Catholic school, God is at the heart of everything that we do.
We believe in living out our faith supporting others as Jesus did to live with tolerance and understanding. We believe that every single child that attends our school is capable of great things and it is our role to support them to achieve this. We strive to ensure our children have love for themselves, care for each other and respect their environment.
At St Edmund s, we are a family. Our dedicated staff team work in partnership with very supportive parents and specialist external agencies to ensure that we provide the best possible experiences for the children at our school. We know that when children are happy and engaged with their learning then there is no limit to what they can achieve.
