About Us
With around 180 pupils on our roll, we are a small primary school based near Brook Green in West Kensington. Over many years, through the dedication of teachers and staff, we have developed an ethos where every single one of our children matters and is inspired to fulfil their potential.
It is our belief that children from St Mary’s Catholic Primary School should be able to grow up and be successful within their own city. We want our children to aspire to be the lawyers, doctors and professionals that work in our city every day and to give them experiences to inspire their self-belief. The key to ensuring our children succeed both while pupils at the school and in the future is having a caring, stimulating and stable environment in which to enjoy their early years. We work hard to ensure the school allows our pupils to grow into happy, caring members of the community.
Our most recent Ofsted Inspection captured where we are as a school, highlighted how we live out our school mission every day and in everything we do. The behaviour of the students is exemplary and our results show our pupils achieve above the national average by the end of key stage 2.
St Mary’s School was established in 1850 by the Catholic Poor Committee. The school was originally set up as a teacher training school on Brook Green, under the charge of the Brothers of Christian Instruction. The teacher training aspect of the school transferred to Strawberry Hill in Twickenham in 1925 and our primary school was born.
In the 1970’s the school was moved to its present site at Masbro Road following a fire. With this move, we became a co-educational school. The school remains in the parish of Holy Trinity, Brook Green and we continue to serve our local Catholic community.
Everybody associated with St Mary’s Catholic Primary School is extremely proud of what we achieve everyday together with our children and I hope that you will take the time to come and see our school and experience for yourself the warm and welcoming atmosphere that we have developed.
