A Welcome from our Head Teacher Mr
C. Lambert St. Mary's R.C. High School is a Roman Catholic Comprehensive School for boys and girls aged 11-16. The school primarily serves the Catholic Communities of Herefordshire and is situated in a very attractive rural location close to the River Lugg, a few miles to the east of the City of Hereford in the village of Lugwardine. St Mary's RC High School is a very good comprehensive school. The school has received achievement awards, from the DfES. The ethos of the school is founded on Gospel values, which means that we try to live by the teachings of Jesus and the example that He set for us. We are a caring community where everyone is valued and a range of talents recognised and nurtured. There is a happy and relaxed atmosphere with a clear and purposeful approach. High standards of appearance and behaviour are expected. The school aims to teach and foster a Christian perspective in all that it does, within a community which has Gospel valves, traditions and beliefs as the kernel of its ethos. At St. Mary's we ensure that all our young people aim high and work hard in all subjects they study. We also encourage all pupils to take the opportunity to join and enjoy the many extra curricular clubs and activities that are very much a part of life here at the school. We believe the partnership of home, school and parish is vital if our pupils are to develop into mature, caring and tolerant young people. Our intention is to involve whenever possible all three parties in decisions concerning the guidance pupils receive whilst at the school. At St. Mary's we actively encourage parents to play a part in the education of their sons and daughters. We hope the information in these web pages will provide you with a flavour of the atmosphere that pervades St Mary's. We
are proud of our school and it is a privilege to be its Head teacher.
