Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Multi Academy Trust Mission Statement
We are a partnership of Catholic schools. Our aim is to provide the very best Catholic education for all in our community and so improve life chances through spiritual, academic and social development.
By placing the person and teachings of Jesus Christ at the centre of all that we do we will:
- Follow the example of Our Lady of Lourdes by nurturing everyone in a spirit of compassion, service and healing.
- Working together so that we can all achieve our full potential, deepen our faith and realise our God-given talents.
- Make the world a better place, especially for the most vulnerable in our society by doing ‘little things with great love’. (St Therese of Lisieux)
Trust Values and Virtues
Our Trust values are inspired by our two patrons, Our Lady of Lourdes and St Thérèse of Lisieux. Our virtues are values in action: expanding our mission, exemplifying our ambitions for everyone and underpinning our strategic priorities:
Faith; Hope; Love; Humility; Respect; Attentiveness; Courage; Solidarity
In living out our mission we are guided by our Catholic Virtues. They form a common vocabulary with which we can articulate our faith in action.
The Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Multi-Academy Trust will nurture your child; they remain at the heart of the aims and vision of school and Trust. Every child will be supported in the development of their faith, spirituality, and academic development by the Trust. The core purpose of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Multi-Academy Trust (CMAT) schools is to improve the lives of the pupils through high quality teaching and learning so that every child can achieve their potential.
For all of the 13,000 children in the Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Multi-Academy Trust to be successful it is essential that the Trust, Schools and parents all work together in unity to enable them all to be successful and prepared for the next stages in their life.
We kindly ask that upon admission to St Patrick’s School, parent/carers sign a Home-School Agreement in order for everyone to work together safely, happily and harmoniously.
