Right in the heart of Westminster, just steps from the Cathedral, you ll find St. George's Cathedral Catholic Primary School, a lively, one-form entry school for children aged 3 to 11. We re proud of our deep-rooted partnership with the clergy and our long-standing tradition of delivering exceptional Catholic education.
Our mission is simple, powerful, and lived every day: To live and to learn together through our faith in Jesus Christ. This isn't just a motto it's the heartbeat of our school. It shapes a community where children thrive academically, grow spiritually, and develop a genuine love of learning, kindness, and curiosity.
While we give priority to practising Catholic families, our doors are open to all. We celebrate the rich mix of cultures, faiths, and backgrounds that make our school so special. Every child brings something unique, and we build on that to help them understand the world and their place in it. Our curriculum is creative, ambitious, and inspiring.
It's built on high expectations and excellent teaching, and it's enriched by a wide range of co-curricular activities that promote well-being, spark new interests, and help every child discover their strengths.
