RT @Nic Crosley1: https://t.co/ktSpfrsLYw Please spread the word widely. More assistance is needed to improve SEND results and experiences. Welcome to the webpage for our school. I hope the data I've supplied helps you understand our pride in St. Joseph's Specialist Trust as well as the accomplishments and successes of our kids. Nearly everyone who has ever visited St. Joseph's has said that it is a truly unique location. St. Joseph's is a Christian neighbourhood that makes the beliefs and customs of the Catholic Church available to everyone. You'll notice a joyful, tranquil ambiance permeating all of the waking curriculum's activities, one that fosters pupils' growth and success. As a member of St Joseph's, every student and member of staff achieves a sense of her/his own importance and dignity, in an environment where everyone enjoys the feeling of belonging and shows regard for the feelings and needs of others. We offer a comprehensive programme that teaches people from the inside out—their heads, hearts, and minds. Our wide range of programmes and activities empower and encourage students to think about and take full use of the opportunities available to them, placing no restrictions on student achievement. Our school website enables us to showcase the work we do as a community as well as the numerous and valuable contributions our students make to St. Joseph's as well as their families and communities.
