St Thomas More School Mission Statement

St Thomas More is first and foremost a Catholic School – in faith and in our all-embracing philosophy, based on the teaching and values of Jesus Christ.  We commit ourselves as a Catholic Community to the development of the whole person and the pursuit of excellence by:

  • Nurturing and developing the Catholic faith within our community with a love of God and neighbour and through a belief that all are unique and equal in the eyes of God

  • Having expectations of the highest possible standards in all things for all pupils, resulting in the highest possible academic success and personal achievement

  • Ensuring high standards of behaviour through a culture of respect for oneself, for the school and for others, embracing the fact that we are all members of a wider multi-cultural and multi-faith community, whilst holding a strong sense of pride and belonging for our own school community

  • Fostering a love and joy of learning and healthy living, to produce happy, healthy, successful and responsible global citizens of the future.
