Welcome to St Anselm’s Catholic Primary School. We are a welcoming and happy school community and our door is always open to those who want to come and visit us.
Our School Vision is "Success for All." This underpins our overall curriculum intent. We want all our children to succeed and to learn in an enjoyable and creative fashion. We provide a curriculum that engages learners and develops their interests.
The mission of St Anselm’s Catholic Primary is to provide pupils with an education that inspires our children to excellence. We provide a curriculum, which is broad and balanced, recognising that every pupil is unique.
Our curriculum is also designed to enable every child to be well-equipped to be active citizens in service to the world. Our Building the Kingdom Initiative helps us to give a practical expression to our Gospel Values and British Values. One way is to focus on "How can we make the world a better place for all of God's children?" This question has helped us to respond to Pope Francis’ “Laudato Si”, and "Fratelli Tutti". This is a wonderful opportunity for the children to engage in Catholic Social Teaching in a practical and meaningful way.
We also provide a wide range of extra-curricular activities and strong pastoral support.
Our Mission Statement “In God’s love we live, learn and grow” is central to the school’s philosophy of growing in faith.
Our School Rules & Values:
1) Be honest.
2) Always try your best.
3) Be kind.
4) Respect everyone.
We ensure every child is prepared for life in Great Britain by actively promoting British Values:
Democracy
The Rule of Law
Individual Liberty
Mutual Respect
Tolerance of those of Different Faiths and Beliefs
At St Anselm's, each child is given every opportunity to develop their talents to the full and to discover how they can use their gifts for the good of society in a happy, well-ordered, and caring environment. We believe that each child is made in the image and likeness of God and as such, really deserves the best life chances we can offer.
