We are really proud of our school as we believe it is a friendly, caring environment where everyone is committed to providing the best learning opportunities for our children. We hope that you choose our school for your child and that this will be the start of a long and happy association with our school.

We aim to

• · Nurture, develop and integrate Religious Education, worship and other aspects of school life so that faith is a lived experience
• · Develop positive relationships between home, school, parish and the wider community
• · Promote respect for oneself, each other and the environment
• · Provide each child with a secure environment which encourages them to recognise and fully develop their own unique talents.

We are a busy but friendly school, with lots going on. This website aims to give you information about the curriculum we deliver, the Catholic life of the school as well as providing regular updated information for both parents and pupils. Therefore, we hope that you enjoy your visit to our website, and that you find any information you are looking for. Please feel free to contact the school directly with any queries you may have.

Blessed Sacrament is a Catholic school which seeks to live out the values of Jesus Christ. We promote these values by our words and deeds, and Catholic doctrine therefore permeates every aspect of the school's activity. We provide a Catholic curriculum, which is broad and balanced, recognising that every pupil is unique and is created in the image of God.

Our curriculum is designed to enable every pupil to discern their vocation and to be well-equipped to follow it as active citizens in service to the world. Catholic Religious Education is the 'core of the core curriculum' and the foundation of the entire educational process. We also provide a wide range of extra-curricular activities and strong pastoral support. We incorporate democratic principles, value the rule of law, support individual liberty and foster a community in which different faiths and beliefs are respected.

Our aim at Blessed Sacrament school is to provide our children with a culture and curriculum that effectively promotes all of these key values. This will create a values-driven school that achieves outstanding results for our pupils and for the wider community.

Blessed Sacrament School has very close links with the parish. We are fortunate that our parish church is close by and enables us to plan a number of visits throughout the year, helping to enrich the Religious Life of the school.

Throughout the school year a number of services and Masses are prepared for the school community, with the support of our parish team.Throughout the school year a number of services and Masses are prepared for the school community, with the support of our parish team.
