School History

Our Lady and Saint Werburgh’s

Catholic Primary School

The school was officially opened in 1967, having been built by the Catholic Community without a Government grant, to cater for children of the Clayton Parish. The children are mainly from Catholic families in the Parish, non Catholic parents who wish their children to have a Christian Education are admitted at the discretion of the Governors, subject to our admissions criteria.

Admission to the school is controlled by the Governors. Parents moving into the area or considering sending their children to the school are invited during the term before the child is admitted to visit the child's future classroom, and meet the staff as part of our induction programme.

The school comprises of eight classrooms, one for each year group, plus a recently built classroom which accommodates our four year old Pre-Reception children. Children currently enter the school in the term after they reach the age of five. Pupils aged 5 - 7 years are taught in Key Stage 1 and pupils aged 7 - 11 years are

taught in Key Stage 2
