Welcome to Cardinal Allen Catholic High School
I am delighted to be able to welcome you to Cardinal Allen Catholic High School.
We are an inclusive learning community, living each day to make Christ known. Each one of our pupils is a unique individual who has, regardless of any characteristic, as much right to the same care, love, and attention as the next. We strive to recognise, nurture, and celebrate the many gifts and talents of all our pupils, to make them feel valued, and to support them all in realising their potential.
Our school is widely acknowledged for our challenging and enriching curriculum, and our supportive and outstanding pastoral care. We expect a lot of our pupils, and they reap the rewards when they rise to the challenge. We believe that personal appearance, great attendance, good manners, outstanding behaviour, and taking responsibility for one’s actions are important – they are what you might call our non-negotiables – but such values make a difference to our pupils’ futures.
I hope that our website provides you with the information that you are looking for and gives you a sense of what we are about. If you should have any questions about the school, or would like to visit us on a working day, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Mr Andrew Cafferkey
Headteacher
