Work together; Succeed together
These core values have very much been created by all members of our school community. Respect, Courage and Pride came through as Values that staff feel are important to define us a community, Students overwhelmingly selected the term Determination and parents very much suggested Compassion as a core value.
Courage
Courage is about stepping out of our comfort zones and facing challenges with confidence. It means speaking up for what is right, taking risks in our learning, and being resilient when faced with setbacks.

SOCIAL MEDIA
An inspiring evening at the @walkerartgallery in Liverpool!
Last night, five of our GCSE Art & Design students had the incredible opportunity to attend the @patrick__mcdowell and Talia Byre in Conversation event with ELLE magazine.
What made the evening even more special was that Patrick is a former student of our school. Patrick has gone on to build an exciting creative career, designing and creating clothes for high-profile clients including Lady Gaga, Billy Porter, Lizzo and Harry Styles.
After the event, he took the time to speak with our students, sharing memories of his own time at school and asking about their ambitions and dreams.
It was a truly special moment for our students to meet someone who once sat where they are now and has gone on to achieve so much in the fashion industry.
A huge thank you to Patrick for taking the time to inspire the next generation of young creatives. We hope this is an experience our students will remember for many years to come! #inspiration #fashion
Hot chocolate Friday! Well done to all those students who were invited for a hot chocolate this week with Mr Maddocks. You are excellent role models for our school community and we are very proud of you. 🌟 #hotchocolate #SMCCfamily #proud
Our theme this week is Generosity. 💛
In the Gospel, Jesus reminds us that God’s love isn’t something we compete for or earn, it is freely given to everyone. This week, we’re challenged to have generous hearts: giving our time, kindness, encouragement and forgiveness without asking, “What will I get in return?” How can you show generosity this week? 🌱
