Welcome
Welcome to St Peter’s Catholic School.
I hope the information on our website provides you with a flavour of our exceptional school and the wide range of opportunities available to our pupils. St Peter’s is a special place and, as a former pupil myself, I feel truly privileged and honoured to now serve as its Headteacher.
Why Choose Us?
Faith
St Peter's exists to enable the pupils not simply to grow in their own faith but to help them to be able to take their place in the world as mature Christians. We aim, as a truly Catholic school, to help young people develop a global attitude so that they can see themselves, and play their part, as citizens of the world.
Community
A good education is the best possible preparation for adult life and at St Peter’s, we aim to ensure that every student thrives and flourishes. We endeavour to educate pupils in a caring and nurturing atmosphere so that they are enabled to value life-long learning and the Gospel values can be related to everyday life and work.
Excellence
St Peter’s has an excellent academic record and all pupils who come here make very good progress. We pride ourselves on the high standards that we hold as a school and the quality first teaching that our pupils receive. After five years, a high proportion of St Peter’s pupils achieve excellent grades in their GCSE examinations.
Aspirations
At St Peter’s, we are passionate about ensuring that every pupil develops spiritually, morally, socially and physically. Therefore, we strongly value the extra-curricular life of our school and encourage all pupils to get involved in a wide range of clubs and activities.
What Our Community Says...
"I really enjoy being a pupil at St Peter's. The staff and atmosphere here is really friendly, warm and welcoming. I enjoy all of the subjects I am taught but my favourites currently are History and English. I have made lots of friends since coming to the school and look forward to seeing them everyday. I am so pleased that I came here!"

We have been discussing Green Careers Week cross curricular this week. Green Careers Week raises aspiration, supports diversity, challenges stereotypes, and promotes real opportunities for our young people to have a career that will genuinely make a difference. Green careers are a fast-growing global employment sector that touches every company, employer, employee, and education establishment. #greencareersweek25 #thinkgreen #bethechange

Yesterday, all our pupils came together in reverence and joy as they attended Mass to celebrate the Feasts of All Saints and the Holy Souls. Each service was a beautiful balancehonouring the radiant lives of the Saints while offering solemn prayers for the Holy Souls. It was a moving and meaningful moment for our school community, reminding us of the power of faith, remembrance, and unity.
