Our Mission and Values:

'Living, Loving, Learning as followers of Jesus Christ'

Our Mission Statement is at the centre of all that we do.  

On behalf of the pupils, parents, staff and governors I would like to extend, to you and your family, a warm welcome to Holy Family Catholic Primary School. We are very proud of our nurturing environment here at school; encouraging all children to reach their full potential and celebrating the uniqueness of us all.

Holy Family is a school that our children, staff, parents and governors are proud of.  We strive to promote the values of faith throughout our daily life.  We provide a religious syllabus, which develops our children's knowledge and understanding of our faith while providing a broad, balanced and challenging curriculum that develops the potential of all our pupils.

Meeting the needs of children, inspiring a love of challenging learning and aspiring to Christian values, can best be achieved by close co-operation between home, school and parish. Without the involvement of parents, our task is that much more difficult and less enjoyable.  Therefore, we hope that parents will take a close interest in what their children are doing in school and encourage and support their child's learning. Here at Holy Family, we are constantly striving to improve our school to provide the best possible safe, nurturing, learning environment for your children.

Go for green in all that we do

Our most recent OFSTED visit (June 2024) stated that we are a GOOD school. The report commented that:

• Pupils enjoy being part of this happy and diverse school community. They help everyone to feel welcome and valued in their school.
• Relationships between adults and pupils are warm and nurturing. Pupils feel safe. They know that staff are there to listen and support them if they have any worries.
• Pupils are respectful and polite to one another and to staff and visitors.
• Pupils benefit from a wide range of activities beyond the academic curriculum. This helps to develop their talents and interests.
• Reading is at the heart of the school’s curriculum.
• Pupils who are at the early stages of learning to read, or who speak English as an additional language, receive the support that they need to become successful readers.
• The school accurately identifies the additional needs of pupils with SEND as soon as possible. Staff tailor learning activities well to meet pupils’ needs. This ensures that pupils with SEND can access the same curriculum content as their peers and achieve well.
• Children quickly develop confidence and independence. Pupils across the school behave well.
• The school is committed to broadening pupils’ horizons. Pupils learn about different faiths and beliefs. They understand fundamental British values and they know to be tolerant and respectful.
• Pupils learn important information about online safety, healthy lifestyles and how to keep themselves safe.

Our CSI Inspection (2025– Archdiocese of Liverpool), which deemed us

as remaining as ‘an OUTSTANDING Catholic school’ commented on:

• Holy Family’s inclusive Catholic life and mission is a major strength, fostering a community where every pupil feels loved, valued, and supported, enabling all to flourish.
  
• Pupils care for our common home with creativity and purpose, growing a deep responsibility for God’s creation through meaningful teaching, thoughtful worship, and daily practice.
• Parental engagement is a real strength of the school, where families are warmly welcomed and actively involved, enriching pupils’ spiritual and moral development and strengthening the whole school community.
• The school’s indoor and outdoor spaces reflect its Catholic character, with inspiring displays and prayer areas that nurture reflection, spiritual growth, and a strong sense of belonging.
• Pupils take pride in religious education at Holy Family, producing consistently well-presented work that reflects their engagement, enjoyment, and commitment to deepening their faith.
