Welcome
Welcome to St. Bede’s Catholic School and Sixth Form College. I am absolutely delighted to have the privilege of leading this loving and inclusive school community. We welcome students of all faith backgrounds and none to our school.
It is both a joy and a responsibility that we take very seriously to work alongside our families in helping our students develop into the person they are capable of being, and to support them in developing their relationship with God. As a school we are deeply committed to offering students opportunities for prayer, reflection and faith in action.

Our Values
We are committed to creating an atmosphere filled with Catholic values, attitudes, practice, and knowledge—where every child has the opportunity for their faith to be nurtured. Our goal is that all students grow in faith and character, so they may deepen and widen themselves as people, fully prepared for the challenges of this life and the life to come.
Letters
We send out letters and newsletters on a regular basis to keep parents up to date with school decisions and progress.
At St Bede's, we keep our parents, carers and families informed about upcoming events and celebrations of our children's successes. We regularly publish a newsletter, which is sent out electronically to all of our parents and is made available on this page. We also use Social media to share the very latest events, learning and religious celebrations that take place within our school.
