Religious Education Supported by our Special Charter, we teach Christian values in everything we do and foster the Catholic Doctrines in our classrooms and the playground. The goals of a Catholic school are: The Uniqueness of the Individual Within Catholic schools, each individual is seen as made in God’s image and loved by the Creator. All students are therefore valued and respected as individuals, so that they may be helped to fulfil their unique role in creation. The Search for Excellence The search for Excellence is seen as an integral part of the spiritual quest. Christians are called to seek perfection in all aspects of their lives. In Catholic education, pupils are therefore given the opportunity to develop their talents to the full. The Education of the Whole Person Catholic education is based on the belief that the human and the divine are inseparable. In Catholic schools management, organisation, academic and pastoral work, prayer and worship, all aim to prepare young people for their life as Christians in the community. The Education of All Their belief in the value of each individual leads Catholic schools to have the duty to care for the poor and to educate those who are socially, academically, physically or emotionally disadvantaged. Moral Principles Catholic education aims to offer young people the experience of life in a community founded on gospel values. In Religious Education in particular, the Church aims to transmit to them the Catholic faith. Both through Religious Education and in the general life of the school, young people are prepared to serve as witnesses to moral and spiritual values in the wider world.
