Our Mission Statement

Our Mission Statement, 'With God, all things are possible!' underpins our ethos and mission as a Catholic school. 

Our Catholic Values and Virtues

Each term, we focus on two of the Birmingham Diocesan Catholic Pupil Profile 'Values and Virtues', which help to teach our children the importance of living as good Christian followers today.  Through these virtues and values, we are encouraging children to demonstrate their faith in their actions to others, bringing joy, positivity and hope to all they encounter. 

The Virtues focus for each half term during the academic year 2026 - 2027 will be:

Autumn 1: Compassionate and Loving

Pupils are growing to be compassionate towards others, near and far, especially the less fortunate; and loving by their just actions and forgiving words. We aim to  open the eyes of our children to those who suffer poverty, injustice or violence in their class, their family, our school and the wider community and to give them the skills to help where they can.

Autumn 2: Faithfilled and Hopeful

Pupils are growing to be faith-filled in their beliefs and hopeful for the future. This is especially important in the season of Advent as we wait in hope for the coming of Christ.. We encourage our children to have faith and hope in themselves and others.

Spring 1: Eloquent and Truthful

Pupils grow to be eloquent by using language and actions to express their ideas or opinions clearly and with conviction. We choose our words carefully so they are kind and compassionate, and don’t hurt others. Being truthful means taht we are following in the footsteps of Christ and living the way that God wants us to. Being truthful is being faithful to ourselves and to Jesus. We should stand up for the truth.

Spring 2: Learned and Wise

Pupils are growing to be learned, finding God in all things; and wise in the ways they use their learning for the common good.  We become learned and wise by knowing Jesus and the example He set for us and we find this in the bible. 

Summer 1: Curious and Active 

Our children are growing to be curious about everything; and active in their engagement with the world, changing what they can for the better. They learn to be curious about the universe and all human activity, and to take increasing responsibility for their own learning, and by providing opportunities for them to be active in the life of the school, the Church and the wider community.

Summer 2: Intentional and Prophetic

Children learn to be intentional in the way they live and use the resources of the earth, guided by conscience; and prophetic in the example they set to others. We teach children to think critically and carefully and to make wise choices to live a life as God intended.  We are prophetic when we use our words (and actions) to spread the Good News about Jesus Christ. 

One child from each class who demonstrates the virtues is chosen to receive our Virtues certificate in our weekly Celebration of our Gifts from God assembly.
