Welcome to Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School

A warm welcome to Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School where we provide children of nursery and primary school ages a rich and varied education.

We aim for every child to discover their God given gifts and to strive for excellence in all that they do. All our children are taught to live out the values of Jesus Christ and to treat each other with honesty, integrity, compassion and respect. We provide a broad and balanced curriculum; we recognise that every child is unique and created in the image of God.

We are very proud of the family atmosphere that pervades all aspects of school life. We have excellent parental support which we value enormously and a Governing Body which is proactive and supportive. Our whole school community is committed to providing our children with an exciting and stimulating environment where they can flourish and become confident and independent learners -well equipped to be active citizens in the world today.

At Our Lady of Lourdes School, we are committed to ensuring equality of opportunity for all pupils, staff, parents and carers irrespective of race, gender, disability, belief, sexual orientation, age or socio-economic background and all protected characteristics of a person's identity that make them who they are. We aim to develop a culture of inclusion and diversity in which all those connected to the school feel proud of their identity and ability to participate fully in school life.

We tackle discrimination through the positive promotion of equality, by challenging bullying and stereotypes and by creating an environment which champions respect for all; we believe that diversity is a strength which should be respected and celebrated by all those who learn, teach and visit us.
