From the Trinity Catholic College
In my capacity as Trinity Catholic College's new headteacher, it is a great pleasure for me to write to you.
Being chosen by Nicholas Postgate Catholic Academy Trust is a privilege in my eyes. I'm thrilled to be in my position and am eagerly anticipating the challenge that lies ahead.
My goal is to strengthen the existing strong Catholic atmosphere and make sure that everyone on staff has a burning desire for your child to succeed.
Exam performance alone won't be enough; as the head of our school, I'll make sure that every instructor instructs your child to follow Jesus' teachings.
I want to create a setting where every student looks forward to going to school because the lessons are engaging, challenging, and filled with passion.
I will create an environment where both children and adults may create remarkable work; there won't be any limits on what can be expected of any student or member of the school community in terms of performance.
If it isn't good enough for my own child, it's not good enough for yours. This is how I will run the school and how I operate in general.
We are starting a new chapter for our kids and a new journey together as the Trinity Family.
