Our Mission Statement captures the essence of what we believe in and encourages us in all that we do. We constantly remind pupils of the values and principles that we share as a community.

The spiritual, moral and cultural development of all our pupils is encouraged through our prayer life, everyday actions and words.

The community of Salvatorian College has a local, national and international dimension where pupils and staff are involved in supporting various different Catholic charities and organisations to help the poor and disadvantaged in our world.

HEADTEACHER’S Welcome I am proud to welcome you to the Salvatorian College on behalf of the pupils, staff and governors.

Choosing the right school for your children is one of the most important decisions any parent has to undertake. I do hope that you find the information and content of our prospectus helpful in making your decision.

I believe that Salvatorian College provides the correct blend of academic challenge, spiritual development and enrichment that allows for the holistic development of each child in our care.

Your child is as special to us as they are to you and our aim is not to limit, but rather liberate their potential.

I believe the care and guidance offered at Salvatorian College by our outstanding staff provides an ethos that will allow your child to become the special person God intended them to be.

I believe passionately in the importance of recognising every pupil as a unique individual with their own gifts and talents who can make a contribution and positive difference to our thriving school community.
