About St Cuthbert's Catholic High School
A warm welcome to St Cuthbert’s Catholic High School.
A warm welcome to St. Cuthbert’s. It is a privilege to introduce myself as Headteacher of St. Cuthbert’s Catholic High School.
We are a Catholic 11-16 High School in the heart of the community and wonderful things happen at our school every day. Our school has a rich, exciting, broad and balanced curriculum which is expertly sequenced to get the very best from our students. Our teaching and learning is high quality and research-led, and our Pastoral support ensures that all of our children are happy, safe and cared for.
At St. Cuthbert’s we challenge our whole school family to live out our core values (which are based on the Gospel Values), every day. We teach our students to have the courage to stand up for what is right, the commitment to know more and be more, the compassion to respect and understand others, and the challenge to work together as one community.
We are proud that our school is well known for its care and recognition of each individual child, its warmth of relationships and its academic excellence irrespective of ability. We are determined to develop the whole child at St. Cuthbert’s through our strong Personal Development offer, along with a vibrant extra-curricular and educational visits programme.
Our Vision is clear and our Mission is lived out daily. We are a school where everyone is valued, where everyone matters and where everyone is encouraged to ‘live life in all its fulness’ (John 10:10)
St. Cuthbert’s is truly more than a school.
If you have any questions about our school please do not hesitate to get in touch.
We are St Cuthbert's. We are more than a school.

I love teaching English because it helps students to develop their literacy skills in preparation for life outside of school. Plus, the poems, plays and novels we read hold really important messages about life and how we should treat each other. English is the best subject because we read texts which help us to develop our imaginations; which help us to discover new information to continue our learning and which transport us to places we have never been.
- Curriculum Leader, EnglishI love teaching maths. Watching a student grapple with a problem and then the excitement and pride they show when they succeed makes my job immensely rewarding. Maths becomes exciting when the students can place mathematics into a real life context. I enjoy the challenge of bringing their learning alive.
- Curriculum Leader, MathsI love St Cuthbert’s because all the staff are encouraging, enthusiastic and supportive of all our goals for the future.
- Current studentThe teachers were at my side from day 1. I would definitely recommend this school in a heartbeat.
- Past studentOur youngest daughter left today and our oldest three years ago. We cannot praise this school enough, from day one to today it has been an exceptional school with teachers that are proud of their students and it truly shows how dedicated they are. The girls enjoyed their studies and the teachers. You make it personal and fun for them. Thank you so much
- ParentI love teaching science because no two days are the same. There are so many ways to show how different scientific principles can be proven. It’s always so rewarding when pupils prove these for themselves through their own practical work. Science is the best subject because it never stops. Science allows us to keep asking questions about how everything in our world works. There are no limits.
