Meet our Head Teacher

At St Mary’s, we provide a safe, nurturing environment in which we can all flourish. We have the very highest aspirations for our students, their families, our local community, and ourselves.

We challenge students by having a rich and exciting curriculum provision and by making learning practical, engaging and enjoyable. We enable students to succeed by providing the best possible personalised support.

Our hope is that all the young people who come to St Mary’s will work hard, achieve their full potential and enjoy their time with us. We want our students to develop a strong sense of kindness and justice, to have pride in themselves and respect for others, to be emotionally resilient and emotionally intelligent, to have realistic aspirations of themselves, to acquire the qualifications and skills necessary to achieve their aspiration and to be an ethical citizen of the world.

As a school we are committed to supporting your child so that they have every opportunity to achieve their true potential, so they can contribute fully to a society that cares for and values everybody.

We look forward to working in partnership with you.

Mr Richard Vaughan,
Head Teacher
