Community

We are continuously forging and embedding links in the local, national and international communities.

Our Links

• We have an established joint Sixth Form with Wimbledon College
• We have a special relationship with St Philomena’s called the Avila Partnership
• We co-lead Teach Wimbledon in partnership with Roehampton University in training teachers
• We work collaboratively with our Merton Catholic Schools on e.g. transition issues and the curriculum
• We have links with a number of community organisations and schools including the Polish Saturday School and Mulberry School

Our motto, Serviam - I will serve, is at the heart of our school ethos and we are strongly committed to promoting a culturally inclusive school environment through our ethos, curriculum, school visits and relationships with parents and links with partners in the local and global community. All groups of students are expected to participate in the life of the school beyond lessons. Robust systems are in place to ensure that the needs of the students from all backgrounds are met.

Performances and events such as the school production, the St Cecilia Concert, art exhibitions and Multicultural Evening provide opportunities for parents and students to celebrate both the arts and our diverse community.

Avila Partnership

Our Avila Partnership with St Philomena’s Catholic High School for
Girls is a commitment to sustaining outstanding Catholic Girls’ education through shared practice, recently providing a Catholic Formation Programme for Catholic primary and secondary schools in the Southwark Diocese, with the hope that shared good practice will improve the academic and spiritual life of our students.
