St Peter's RC High School and Sixth Form Centre 01452 520 594 Principals Welcome Welcome to St Peter's and thank you for your interest in us. St Peter's is an exceptional community of extraordinary young people and adults working towards a common purpose. We are a Catholic educational community who work with parents to prepare their children for adulthood.
Our motto is 'tu es petrus' (You are Peter). These words, spoken by Jesus, are followed by 'and on this rock I will build my Church'. Rocks give foundation and stability, so when we talk of our Rock Values, (Respect, Optimism, Community and Kindness) these are the essence of what we see as essential in the formation of young people as they mature.
Respect comes in many forms and we embrace all of them. We focus on self-respect, respect for others, respect for the environment and respect for God. These are prerequisites of adulthood and as such we plan for opportunities for young people to show that they are respectful.
