About

We are proud to work with all the Catholic schools across our two local authority areas, particularly as the Trust grows and benefits from the expertise and knowledge that other schools joining in the future will bring.

At St. Josephs Catholic Primary Academy, we are proud to be a warm, inclusive community where every child is valued, nurtured, and encouraged to reach their full potential. Guided by our motto United We Excel , we blend academic excellence with creativity, kindness and care for our world.

We believe in inspiring curiosity, building confidence and supporting the wellbeing of every child. Our pupils are encouraged to explore new ideas, take part in school life and make a positive difference to others, both within our community and beyond. Our commitment to excellence is reflected in our most recent SATs results, which placed us in the top 1% nationally .

Our pupils achieved 100% in Maths and Reading and 95% in Writing , a true testament to the dedication of our pupils, staff and families working together.
