Vision & Leadership

At the Cathedral School we have a definite vision of what education should be about, and seek to live by that vision in our day-to-day interactions with one another and in setting the longer term direction of the school. As a Woodard school, we have a vision of a first class academic education, an extensive co-curricular programme which develops the skills and interests of our pupils outside the classroom, and a commitment to high quality pastoral care within a Christian context.

The school's ethos can be artiulated in six themes: ambition, care, thankfulness, opportunity, friendship and achievement. Please click on the links to the left to read more about each of these themes.

The School Council (Governors) and the Senior Management Team seek to ensure high quality leadership and management at all levels of the school. We fortunate to have a very able and committed staff, good facilities and a very supportive parental body. All of us have one aim: that each pupil should be cared for, and should thrive both within and beyond the classroom.
