WELCOME

St Alban’s is a church school that is growing and developing into the future with increasing numbers on roll, improving outcomes and over recent years has undergone significant refurbishment within the building and outdoors!  We have a dynamic team of staff, with many new and some long-standing, but all with a variety of skills and talents that combined offer excellent provision for the children of St Alban’s. Over recent years, we have achieved many successes including: good outcomes in National Tests, with some results well above average, recognition for our bespoke and dynamic curriculum, and the opening of our school nursery provision from aged 2! 

 

We aim to build on these successes so that our children, starting with our Easby Nursery class, throughout EYFS, KS1 and KS2, receive a rich core, life and essential curriculum with opportunities to suit all learners within a distinctive Catholic school where all children are nurtured, taught holistically, know they are loved and can achieve anything. Through forging and strengthening our partnerships with parents, carers, governors, the Parishes of St Alban’s and Blessed English Martyrs, Mexborough, the Denaby and Conisbrough communities that we serve, schools in St Clare Catholic Multi-Academy Trust, across our Hallam Diocese and in Doncaster, we believe that we offer something unique and something special for all our stakeholders, with our children at the very heart of all that we do. 

 

Our January 2022 Ofsted inspection recognised how good the personal development and behaviour and attitudes of our children are, as well as the strengths we have in our Early Years Nursery and Reception classes along with a good early reading provision.  In December 2023, we were inspected by the Catholic Schools Inspectorate and recieved a good and outstanding judgement.  Inspectors noted the strength of relationships between staff, our children, families and other stakeholders and the level of pastoral care as outstanding.  Our curriculum continues to be refined as our leaders are determined to offer the best provision for all our children.  With the team of staff, the strength of support in our community and our most wonderful children, St Alban’s is a truly great school with an exciting future ahead of it!  Take a look at our website to find out more about our Catholic school and nursery.  Any prospective parents are encouraged to come and visit us in person - please contact us to arrange a visit.
