School Description
“Serve the Lord with Joy” is our school motto
St. Bartholomew’s exists to:
• Encourage the spiritual development of all pupils by helping each child to develop their relationship with God through prayer and worship;
• To recognise the importance of forging links with the parish, home and local community;
• To ensure that the highest educational standards are achieved in the light of the National Curriculum;
• To recognise and encourage talent of all kinds and degrees and to endeavour to stretch the intellectual, creative and physical capacity of each child to work in an atmosphere of praise, encouragement and mutual respect from which self-discipline will arise;
• To prepare children to adapt to demands of the changing world, show respect for other cultures and beliefs and equip them for their life.
