about us

Welcome from Headteacher

A very warm welcome to Cardinal Newman Catholic School.

A very warm welcome to Cardinal Newman Catholic School. Our school is named after one of England’s foremost Catholics, Saint John Henry Newman. We are proud to be associated with his love of learning and his strong commitment to providing the best pastoral support for those in his care.

Our mission statement

“Knowledge through the light of faith”

is at the heart of all we do.

Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. We hope that this website will give you an insight into the way we work and what we offer. The aim of this website is to help you make that decision in guiding you briefly through the life of our school and we hope that it reveals something about the spirit of our school. You will find our school-friendly and inviting. If you visit our school you will be met with courtesy and politeness from students and staff alike. We try to put our mission as a catholic school into practice every day in the way we treat others.

At Cardinal Newman School we want for your child exactly what you want as parents – the best and nothing but the best. Every student is challenged every day to do their best and be the best person they can be. However, we know that we can achieve that only with your active support and involvement and that is why we place a big emphasis on working with parents.

We know that we have a good school now and we intend to make it even better in the future. We are very proud of our successes and are determined to continue to improve to meet the needs of our students in an ever-changing world. We believe that academic success is essential and goes hand in hand with spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.

We look forward to welcoming you and your child as members of our school community.
