St Margaret Mary's Catholic Infant School

Our School

St Margaret Mary’s is a vibrant place with a happy, caring atmosphere. Our vision is of a wonderful partnership with Church, parents, teachers, governors and other relevant agencies. Working with Fr Ian, our Parish Priest, St Margaret Mary’s Catholic Junior School and neighbouring schools and nurseries, we aim to be an integral part of the Parish and local community. Our school offers a creative curriculum that excites interests and encourages all of our children to learn and to reach their full potential and laying firm foundations for future learning. We are very proud of our academic achievements and parish/community links.

The website is a key part in improving our communication between school and home. I hope you will find it enjoyable, interesting and informative.

Please read our school prospectus, it contains lots of useful information about our school, the curriculum and how we can help and support you and your family as they begin their educational career.
