2023 Ofsted Inspection - GOOD

• St Joseph’s is a school once experienced then never forgotten. Leaders have the highest of aspirations for all pupils. Likewise, pupils, staff and families know how precious education is. All care for each other and take pride in their school; an oasis of calm in a busy community. Once you are part of the school, you are part of the St Joseph’s family.
• The pupils sparkle like diamonds with enthusiasm. They are polite, curious and openminded.
• When children start school in the early years, staff work hard to make them feel happy and comfortable. As a result, children are confident and independent.
• Pupils are keen to do well in all aspects of the school.
