Welcome to our school. I am extremely proud to be the Headteacher of St. Aloysius’ Catholic Primary School, where all our pupils are ‘ambitious for the higher gifts’. Our school is built upon the ethos ‘To know. To love. To serve.’ Here at St. Aloysius’, staff are committed to develop pupils’ knowledge, relationships, and awareness of the world around them. We welcome children from a range of faiths and backgrounds – with almost 40 different home languages spoken – and we foster strong community links. A quote from a child during our recent OFSTED inspection was ‘No one feels left out here. We are like a family and look after each other.’ 

Staff at St. Aloysius’ develop pupils’ ambitions through our well-planned creative curriculum with God at the centre. We aim to meet the needs of all learners through challenge and deepening of knowledge, as well as providing support and intervention for pupils who need a little extra support to grasp a new learning concept.  

To enhance the curriculum, we endeavour to use the wealth of learning opportunities on our doorstep as a school in the centre of Oxford, with visits to museums and parks and inviting visitors and experts into school to share their knowledge and inspire our pupils.
