St Joseph’s Catholic
Primary School

Welcome to St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School.  We are a single form entry primary school situated in the market town of Thame, Oxfordshire, offering a Catholic education for children from the ages of 4 to 11.

At St Joseph’s we are committed to providing the highest quality education, with our children at the heart of all that we do.

We offer a broad and rich curriculum which inspires our children to discover their own unique potential. Our curriculum is designed to equip children with the knowledge and skills they need in order to achieve well and to prepare them for both their future education and the opportunities and responsibilities of later life. 

We nurture and develop the whole child so that our young people grow spiritually, academically, socially and emotionally.  Our aim is for them to become independent, resilient individuals with a strong moral compass and a desire to make a positive contribution in life.

Our Christian values provide the framework by which we live and relate to each other, with every individual being valued and respected and every person being both challenged and supported to discover the very best in themselves. 

We are blessed with a close relationship with St Joseph’s Parish, a supportive Local Governing Body and an active parents’ association.

We work in close partnership with our parents, as it is in establishing positive communication between home and school that pupils will thrive during their time at St Joseph’s.

There can be no substitute for a personal visit so if you would like to find out more about our school, please contact the school office where our reception team will be delighted to help.

We are very proud of our children. As a result of coming to our school they leave at the end of their time with us confident, respectful individuals ready for the next phase of their learning.  Visitors and prospective parents, as well as Governors and parishioners frequently comment on how well our children represent their school and their enthusiasm and passion for being part of our school family.
