The aim is to educate children through inspiration and beliefs of our Catholic Faith, so that every aspect of school life and curriculum offer living experience of the life of our Catholic faith, in it's practical expression. To build on the foundations already established at home; to develope the spiritual, social, academic and physical potential of each child; to develope a habit of work, a desire for knowledge and good relationships.

The School was established in 1964. Since then the School has had only two Headteachers. Mr John Parkinson who left in 1964 - 1984, and succeeding Mr. Parkinson - Mr Lawrence Montagu, BA, OBE.
The mission of our school is to provide a rigorous and broad education within the context of a Christian environment. An understanding of the Roman Catholic faith, in line with the Gospel message, will underpin the whole work of the school.
St Peter's is not a sectarian school. There is a significant minority of non-Roman Catholic pupils whose parents want them educated in a way which includes an explicit regard for spirituality. We have welcomed Christian pupils from many other denominations as well as those from the eastern orthodox churches, and also members of both the Jewish and the Islamic faiths
The main aim will be to develop the self-esteem, dignity and respect of all members of the community by concentrating on each person's infinite worth in the eyes of God.
