St.Josephs’ belongs to the Catholic communities of Upper Norwood and West Norwood and exists to educate Catholic Children in a community with the gospel values, traditions and beliefs of the catholic Faith at the centre of its ethos.
At St.Joseph’s we aim for excellence. We encourage all children to develop spiritually, socially and academically to the highest possible level of achievement of which they are capable.
The School aims to foster and deepen the children’s faith. If we are to lead children to a living and active faith, our primary concern must be to help them meet God, to listen to him, to know him, to enter into a personal relationship with him and to respond to him through prayer, worship and Christian living.
The School aims to work in partnership with the parents, the Infant School, our Secondary Schools and Parish community through such events as Acts of Worship, Concerts, Fetes, Curriculum Activities and Parents Evenings.
The values of the gospel should be found in every aspect of School life. By gospel values, we mean love God and neighbour. The School aims to have rich liturgical provision expressed in a variety of ways. Among these are prayer, assemblies, Masses and suitable Para liturgical services held at appropriate times of the year.
We will endeavour to foster good relationships between pupils and staff. We hope to promote a concern for justice, a fostering of the talents of the whole school community and a full programme of caring for and serving those who have particular needs, within the School’s community.
