St Joseph's Catholic Primary School

Vision, Value and Mission Statement

Love Jesus, Love Learning, Love Life

Our Catholic Life underpins all aspects at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School. We aim to keep Christ at the centre of all we do, in our prayer life, in our curriculum, in the local community and in our relationships with parents and the clergy. 

“The mission of Catholic schools and teachers is to develop an understanding of all that is true, good and beautiful.” Pope Francis 

At St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School we aim to keep Christ at the centre through: 

  • Demonstrating a Catholic ethos which is evidence and open to experience by all who enter the school.

  • Promoting Gospel virtues and values and the teachings of the Catholic Church as an integral part of their mission.

  • Modelling an example inspired by the image and life of Christ. 

  • Committing to helping all of our pupils find their own vocation in life and encouraging pupils to realise their unique God-given gifts and talents. 

  • Forming an integral part of the communion of the local and universal church. 

  • Providing an engaging and reflective religious education which is integrated into every aspect of the curriculum and life of the school.

Our Gospel Virtues
At St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, we use our Gosepl Virtues to inform and reflect on our behaviours. The virtues are attitudes, dispositions and habits which fulfil our intellect and will, and which order our emotions according to reason and faith - or as the children will tell you, the virtues make us more like who we are and who God wants us to be.
