From the Saint Martin's Catholic Voluntary Academy
Saint Martin's, is situated in the historic and beautiful Leicestershire village of Stoke Golding. It was founded by the Dominicans over sixty years ago and continues to be committed to providing an outstanding education founded upon a strong Christian ethos and a traditional Liberal Arts Education for all pupils.
The mission statement at Saint Martin’s is for to pupils to learn "The best that has been thought and said’ (Matthew Arnold) and to know they are loved by God." A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another” (John 13:34), combining our mission to educate children both in mind and heart.
The aim is to provide children, from all abilities and backgrounds, with an ambitious academic curriculum where all succeed through excellent teaching, uncompromising standards of behaviour and relentless care.
The motto of the Dominican Order is Veritas (which means Truth). The Dominican tradition is to teach “all that is true, all that is noble, all that is just and pure, all that is loveable and gracious, what is excellent and admirable” (St. Paul to the Philippians 4:8). Saint Martin’s therefore, a school in the Dominican Tradition, seeks to pass on to its pupils not only a high-quality academic education but also values for living life in a way that shows respect for what is noble and true.
Exam results have been excellent since Saint Martin's converted to an 11-16 school in 2016. Progress 8 has been consistently positive and the school is rated as above the national average.
