In their own words

About the company & team

Mount St Mary's is a successful and oversubscribed inner city school located in the very heart of the city. Drawing from three of the four compass points the school flourishes in an atmosphere of engagement and aspiration drawing hugely upon the experiences of our incredibly diverse community.

In March 2025 Ofsted visited Mount St Mary's and after an intensive two days found the school to be &slshquot;Outstanding&slshquot; in all four reported areas.

Inspectors declared that the school has a deep community spirit. Pupils enjoy coming to this highly inclusive school. Pupils benefit from a broad and ambitious curriculum. "Pupils feel happy and safe in the school. They behave extremely well. The school encourages pupils to be respectful and supportive to each other. As a result, bullying is very rare."

Ofsted reports that pupils learn from a "rich and well-developed curriculum." Carefully designed to build knowledge and skills, it also has a clear focus to support pupils with SEND and disadvantaged pupils to excel.

Pupils develop "strong and purposeful relationships" with staff, while the "rich and varied personal development" programme is described by inspectors as a "strength of the school's work."

They added: "Staff expertly deliver the curriculum. This ensures that pupils progress well from their starting points when they join the school. Pupils confidently apply the knowledge and skills that they learn to their classwork and wider learning.

"Pupils are exceptionally well prepared for life beyond school. They speak knowledgeably about diversity, culture and faith. They learn about healthy relationships and the importance of consent."

The school's "leadership is exemplary," according to Ofsted and it is "proactively supported" by the diocese, the local authority and governors.

Staff receive "continuing professional development" to further strengthen their practice and ensure pupils are safeguarded.

All students seek to access extra curricular activities beyond the school day, be that of a sporting nature, academic, performing arts or public speaking. This is an area we value highly and continue to see growth in.
