Reception learning
Thu 05 May 2022In Reception, the children talked about the polling station on the school car park today. They talked about what it meant to have a vote and had their own class vote to decide on the story they wanted at the end of the day. #BritishValues #Democracy
A special delivery arrived then this afternoon. Each child carefully set up a special vial and brushed in their very own caterpillar. Over the next couple of weeks the children will take care of them and watch them grow and change.

RE Inspection report findings
Wed 27 Apr 2022We are delighted to share the outcome of our recent RE inspection with you. The judgements made by the inspection team are as follows:
Catholic Life: Outstanding
Religious Education: Good
Collective Worship: Good
You can access a copy of the full report by clicking on the link below but we would like to share a few highlights with you...
‘Pupils’ behaviour is a strength of St Joseph’s that the entire community is justifiably proud of. Pupils are kind towards each other and adults. They show good manners and are polite and welcoming. Pupils can explain that their behaviour is influenced by the school’s mission and the teachings of Christ.’
‘Pupils’ spiritual, moral and ethical development is outstanding because it is ever present in the school’s daily life.’
As you can imagine, we are immensely proud of this achievement and would like to thank you for all the support you give us in leading this amazing school.
