Welcome to St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School, a place where children and adults unite together, learning in the light of Christ. I am so proud to be Headteacher at St. Joseph's, and I truly believe I have the most rewarding job in the whole world. St Joseph's is a single form entry school and we joined the St Francis Catholic Multi-Academy Trust in September 2022.
A child's journey at St. Joseph's can begin in our wonderful nursery, the term after their third birthday, and children leave us as confident, resilient learners, aged 11, ready for their secondary school education to begin.
I am very lucky to lead a fantastic team who share my vision and work incredibly hard to ensure that we provide only the best for the children we serve and that no child is left behind.
