Welcome to St Paul's School for Girls. St Paul's is a unique school. It was founded in by the Sisters of Charity of St Paul the Apostle and years later still retains the same sense of community and excellence built on faith and tradition. Our conscientious, determined and expert staff are still highly committed to the words of Mother Genevieve Dupuis: "do your very best for the children".
In their vocation as teachers they do their very best for the children, fostering high standards of teaching and learning, nurturing pastoral care and spiritual and moral guidance of the girls. St Paul's School for Girls is a community of prayer.
We start each day with an assembly or prayer service. Prayer is central to the life of St Paul's since it is a vital opportunity to raise our hearts and minds to God. Each morning begins with an assembly and the Angelus is said at 12noon. All students are on a rota to attend Mass in the Chapel on a Tuesday morning and are expected to attend Mass on Holy Days of Obligation since 'the Eucharist is the sum and summary of our faith' CCC Our Chaplain is available to hear Confession throughout the year and many other activities are organised to support the spiritual life of our school by the Chaplaincy Team.
At St Paul's our students enjoy a wide variety of opportunities beyond the school curriculum. We encourage all our pupils to make the most of extra-curricular activities in school. It is a great way to enrich and extend learning beyond the classroom and build friendships for life.
Catholic Life permeates all aspects of the school, from the fabric of the building to every lesson and activity that takes place. This is a school with very high expectations of pupils and staff. It also provides impressive pastoral care and high-quality support for all who need it. I am so happy that I chose St Paul's. It is such a privilege to go to such a wonderful school.
