From the Ss. Peter and Paul Catholic Primary School, a Voluntary Academy
The Bishop Wheeler Catholic Academy Trust includes Ss Peter and Paul Catholic Primary School, a Voluntary Academy. Catholic schools were established to support the mission of the church. "This educational purpose comprises the continuous development of each person's full potential." According to a statement made by the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales in May 2000, "it seeks to promote the wellbeing and freedom of every person, which shape the daily life of a Catholic school as a community in which faith is expressed and shared through every aspect of its activity." Our steadfast Catholic faith and Catholic Church traditions serve as the foundation for the school's principles. The school's vision statement has recently been revised by the governors, staff, parents, and students. To learn more about how we created our new vision statement, click here. On September 19, 2012, Archbishop Arthur Roche blessed our new school facility. The Catholic Church both founded and sponsors the school. The school is to be conducted as a Catholic school in accordance with canon law and teachings of the Catholic Church, and in accordance with the Trust Deed of the Diocese of Leeds and in particular Religious Education is to be in accordance with the teachings, doctrines, discipline and general and particular norms of the Catholic Church;. Religious worship must follow the rites, customs, rules, and liturgical guidelines of the Catholic Church. The school's mission is to represent the Catholic faith in Our Lord Jesus Christ at all times.
