Welcome to our website, I hope it gives you a taste of the exciting curriculum we have on offer here at St Philip’s.
I am very proud to be the Headteacher of St Philip’s School and to work with such a dedicated staff team and enthusiastic students. Our facilities are fantastic and support us to create a learning environment that helps all of our students achieve their full potential, both socially and academically. We pride ourselves on our ability to support students to become as independent as possible in all areas of their lives.
Through hard work and perseverance, all of our students progress to meaningful outcomes. Thank you for visiting the St Philip’s website and do get in touch if you require any further information.
Safeguarding Statement from the Headteacher
At St Philip’s School, the safety and well-being of every student is our highest priority. We are committed to creating a secure, supportive, and inclusive environment where all students, who have Education, Health and Care Plans, can thrive and reach their full potential.
Safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do. We adhere strictly to the statutory guidance set out in Keeping Children Safe in Education 2025 and the OFSTED inspection framework. Our safeguarding policies and procedures are robust, regularly reviewed, and fully embedded across the school community. All staff receive ongoing training to ensure they are vigilant and equipped to identify and respond to any concerns promptly and effectively.
We recognise the unique needs of our diverse student body, including those with medical conditions, English as an additional language, and those eligible for Pupil Premium funding. We work closely with families, local authorities, and multi-agency partners to safeguard and promote the welfare of our students.
Our commitment extends beyond the school gates to ensure students feel safe, respected, and valued in all areas of their lives. We encourage independence, social responsibility, and mutual respect, fostering a community where everyone’s voice is heard and protected.
Should you have any concerns about a student’s safety or well-being, please do not hesitate to contact the school’s Designated Safeguarding Lead. Together, we can ensure that St Philip’s remains a safe and nurturing place for all.
