English Martyrs’ is known for its friendly, caring environment where children thrive. As a Catholic school, an atmosphere in which children can grow into the fullness of their faith is created and children’s understanding of, and respect for, people of all faiths and cultures is developed. Parents are valued as the children’s first teachers. A team of dedicated staff educate and encourage pupils to develop into friendly, spiritual, and caring individuals who enjoy learning and so can achieve their full potential.

The whole school community works together to provide a welcoming, safe environment in which children learn to care for and comfort others. Children are encouraged to carry these lessons with them into their every-day lives whilst they are at school and when they move on.

English Martyrs’ vision is to be a school community that works together to achieve excellence; where all are valued; where children become resilient and confident; have no limits placed upon them, and grow as individuals in God's love.
