A member of the local RE Cluster, we engage and collaborate on a variety of levels with local Catholic Primary and Secondary schools in a range of activities and enjoy solid and continuously improving links with our local parishes.

Within the wider school community, the RE Department remains firmly at the centre in ensuring that, in partnership with SLT and the Headteacher, the Catholic life and mission of our Catholic community is ever present, ever visible and ever developing.

We can offer you a welcoming and inclusive environment, with a culture of openness and transparency. We value highly the wellbeing of all our staff and offer a number of benefits to support this. You’ll also benefit from support, mentoring and development tailored to you, training linked to NPQML and NPQSL and further CPD supported by the diocese. Teachers flourish at St Thomas More, and we offer fantastic career advancement for teachers at all levels.

St Thomas More Catholic School is a very special place. Students are friendly, enthusiastic and eager to learn. Staff are caring, supportive and dedicated to finding the true potential in every one of our students.
