Vision, Ethos and Values

We are an enlightened, caring community based on mutual respect and common endeavour. We seek to develop in students the joy of discovery and the discipline of study whilst creating an atmosphere of belonging and security.

Establishing the school as a centre of excellence in Manchester has been an immense opportunity and a rewarding journey. We continue to develop an enlightened, caring community based on mutual respect and common endeavour, in which enterprise is encouraged and initiative valued.

To achieve our aim, we expect students to take strength from their faith beliefs. Spiritual understanding and growth play an important part in the life of the school and we live and work by the ‘golden rule’ understood by people of all faiths: “Treat other people as you would want them to treat you”.

Receiving students from approximately 100 different primary schools each year, we place huge importance on establishing a smooth transition and creating an atmosphere of belonging and security. Staff are committed to ensuring that students should live and work in a harmonious environment, with everything possible in place to provide a secure and stable way of life, free from worry. Those needing support in their learning receive targeted help, both within and outside of the classroom.

Relationships at all levels are important to us. We regard the partnership between school and home as a key foundation on which our distinctive atmosphere is created – both demanding and caring – reflecting the hope that parents have for their own children.

“I call it the Trinity Plus; the feeling that the school is interested in and invests in our children, not just in their grades at the end of Year 11, but in their personal development from children to young adults.”
