From the School
Those visiting our website to learn more about our school are cordially invited. I am incredibly proud of our school, as well as of our diligent and driven faculty and students. As an 'old girl' of St Paul's myself, I feel extremely privileged to lead the school that gave me such an inspirational, fulfilling and excellent education. Therefore, I have a burning desire to make sure that every one of our students leaves school feeling inspired and empowered. St. Paul's is a special institution. The Sisters of Charity of St. Paul the Apostle created it in 1908, and 110 years later, it still exudes the same feeling of community and quality rooted in religion and tradition. Do your absolute best for the children is a maxim still strongly embraced by our diligent, tenacious, and knowledgeable personnel. As educators, they give the kids their all while promoting high standards of instruction and learning, pastoral care, and the girls' spiritual and moral upbringing. Hence, St Paul's is not merely regarded as a school by our pupils but as a family of faith and happiness in which to achieve academic and personal excellence. We provide Catholic girls with a distinctive educational experience as the only all-girls Catholic school in Birmingham. Our pupils travel from every part of the city and many also travel from Worcestershire, Solihull, Dudley and Sandwell, such is the demand for what our school has to offer. I hope you like the remaining pages of the website. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email or call us.
