St Maria Goretti Catholic Academy

Welcome to St Maria Goretti Catholic Academy. 

As a Catholic school, Christ is at the centre of all that we do. Everything at St Maria Goretti is underpinned by the Gospel Values and our school mission statement, ‘Achieve Together in Love and Faith’ permeates throughout the school.

Our passionate and nurturing staff feel strongly about developing and fostering the God-given talents of the children in our care, as well as delivering a broad, ambitious and bespoke curriculum, encouraging all learners to achieve well academically and to be the best version of themselves. This combination of high standards and compassion leads to good outcomes for all of our children.

We develop the whole child and our pupils are encouraged to be independent and lead their own learning. This overall, prepares them for the transition into the next part of their educational journey, as well as most of all, provides them with the resilience and ambition to achieve their hopes and dreams.

We are part of St Gabriel the Archangel Catholic Multi Academy Trust which is a growing family of 63 schools across the Archdiocese of Birmingham, united by a shared mission to deliver excellent Catholic education that transforms lives.

We are inspired by St Gabriel the Archangel and guided by five values that shape our culture: Confidence & Humility, Peace & Courage, Faith in the Impossible, Listening with Love and Service Beyond Self. These values drive our commitment to helping every pupil and colleague flourish within our Trust.
