St Dubricius School is committed to ensuring our students are able to understand the world around them and the talents within them through the guidance of Christian values, so they can become fulfilled individuals and active, compassionate citizens.

We pride ourselves in creating a safe and happy environment for learning in which teachers, parents, governors, volunteers and other friends of the school all work together to achieve and maintain the highest possible standards. Our core values of curiosity, courage, perseverance, compassion and collaboration are at the heart of everything we do.
We enjoy a close association with the neighbouring Church of St Dubricius which has a Parish Office within the school site; and whose Rector is a regular visitor.
