  Comments from our recent Ofsted May 2017

  The Executive Principal and Head of School exude a determination to enable every pupil to achieve his or her potential.  Governors, leaders, staff and pupils all share high expectations for pupils’ achievement and their personal development.

  A ‘learning culture’ is firmly embedded among pupils.  In all subjects, pupils are keen to discuss and debate ideas and approaches.  They are eager to find out more, and determined to improve.  Not a minute is wasted in lessons and pupils readily continue their enquiries and endeavours out of class.

  Saint Augustine’s is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of young people
