About

St Gerard's Catholic Primary School is part of the Nicholas Postgate Catholic Academy Trust which helps Catholic schools in across the Northern part of our Diocese provide a vision of Catholic education which extends from Nursery to 6th Form and all the stages in between.

Working in partnership we provide the education and spiritual guidance to ensure our children have the best possible start in life and follow the guiding principles of our faith throughout school. We are truly privileged to serve the children and parents of St Gerards and the wider St Marys Cathedral Parish community.

At St. Gerards, we strive to ensure that every child feels safe and happy and is given every opportunity to fulfil their God given potential. We hope that our school website gives an insight into the stimulating and engaging curriculum and the nurturing environment that is based upon Gospel Values. At St Gerards, Christ is at the heart of all aspects of school life.

Please feel free to contact school directly for more information or if you have any queries. Public Consultation on behalf of the Nicholas Postgate Catholic Academy Trust regarding School Admissions Policies for 2027/28
