Welcome to St Thomas More Catholic School

Head Teacher's Welcome

St Thomas More is a school that is proud of its traditions and Catholic values.

We believe strongly in the importance of collaboration and are proud to be part of the Bishop Wilkinson Catholic Education Trust. Catholic Education offers a unique opportunity to place the teachings of the church at the forefront of our work and to focus on the education of the whole child.

We are a school that does the right thing for the right reason; we strongly believe in God’s interest in individuals and the belief that we can all enter into personal relationships with God.
