St Aidan’s is a thriving and happy school where pupils are extremely proud to be part of a highly ambitious and nurturing environment (Ofsted, 2025).

St Aidan’s is a Catholic learning community for boys aged 11-18, in which all individuals are provided with the opportunity to flourish in a way that is rooted firmly in the values of the Gospel where each child can ‘Celebrate life to the full’.

From the moment a pupil arrives at St Aidan’s Catholic Academy we expect them to live by these values.

Our values driven policies, clear vision and consistent routines demand and nurture a strong sense of moral purpose, personal responsibility, integrity, honesty and respect for others within our pupils.
