About Us

St Paul's has 1200 students aged 11-16 and is a diverse community centred on the charism of St Paul as a missionary, seeker of truth and a champion of justice. Our school motto is taken from St Paul's letter to the Ephesians and simply states 'You are God's work of Art'. This is a mission statement as well something which acts as a benchmark for the day to day experiences of the community.

St Paul's Academy seeks to serve young people from both the Catholic and the local community, welcoming all those who embrace its values and share its quest for excellence:

To provide opportunities for young people to develop the knowledge, skills and wisdom necessary for effective learning.To enable learners to develop their intellectual, social, moral, spiritual and physical potential to the full in order to become proactive members of both the local and wider community.To increase aspirations by exploiting educational innovations and opportunities in the best interests. In the Catholic School's Inspection we had in February 2024, St Paul's achieved an Outstanding grade for Catholic life and Mission and rated 'Good' for all other areas. St Paul's was praised for the "deep pastoral care" that is provided and for integrating "fully in the wider community through faith in action and service". OFSTED 2023 also commented on the ambition being put into the curriculum and the strength of the leadership of the school to raise ambitions and expectations at St Paul's.
