Welcome From the CEO

It is my absolute privilege and honour to lead the St Francis Catholic MAT in the Diocese of Hallam. We serve our children and families through being committed to providing the highest standard of education, where academia and personal growth are our priorities rooted in our Catholic faith.

Our schools are unique, serving wide ranging communities. At St Francis we celebrate this individuality and support our schools to meet the needs of the children and families in their care. As individual schools we are joined together in our Catholic faith, delivering education which is rooted in Gospel Teachings. This creates our community which comes together to share excellence, learn from each other and champion our children.

I believe that education, along with the community that we have grown, is the most powerful tool we have to shape the future for our children.

My vision for St Francis CMAT is one where:

  • All children receive innovative, creative and personalised teaching and learning
  • All children to receive an outstanding curriculum which shapes them as people in God’s image
  • All children to flourish in stimulating, highly effective, happy environments
  • The Trust is the employer of choice for all staff through investment, recognition and progression

I am so very proud of St Francis, our schools, our staff, families and children. I warmly invite you to visit us to learn more about what we offer for the whole Trust community.
