About Us

Dear Visitors

Thank you for your kind interest in St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School website. We are very proud of our happy and successful school, made possible only with the support of our dedicated team of hardworking staff and wonderful Governing Body and School Association. Please take a moment to read our excellent Ofsted report.

The family of St. Joseph's School share together a commitment to our School Mission, that we may all 'Live, love and learn in a caring Christian community'. St. Joseph's School has grown significantly in recent years, expanding to twelve classrooms.

We admit children to the nursery and the reception classes once a year in September. We are sometimes oversubscribed, however, there is an increasing mobility of families moving to and from the area which provides opportunities for in-year admissions too.

St. Joseph's School has strong links to St. Joseph's Pre-School as well as to St. Mary's Catholic Secondary School. The school is surrounded by two playgrounds, a pleasant field area and an adventure playground. Situated on the west side of Bishop's Stortford the school is bordered by our neighbours, St. Mary's Catholic Secondary School and the Bishop's Stortford College playing fields.

It is always a great pleasure to welcome prospective parents to our school; you are warmly invited to visit us during the day to enable you to gain an insight into our school. There is so much to share with you. I do hope you will enjoy browsing through our website and be encouraged to visit us soon.

With all good wishes
Peter Coldwell
Headteacher
