Welcome
I would like to offer you a very warm welcome to Our Lady and St. Joseph Brooms Catholic Primary School.
At Our Lady and St. Joseph’s every child is known, valued and nurtured. We are a family who care for one another, support one another and inspire one another to be the best that we can be. We are very much part of a larger community; within school, with our feeder school St. Bede’s, within our Parish, within Bishop Wilkinson Catholic Education Trust and within the wider community to which we serve. Developing positive relationships with families and the wider community from the earliest opportunity is our priority. We thrive when we work together; with each other and for each other.
Mrs H Jarvis
Acting Head of School

We also use Social media to share the very latest events, learning and religious celebrations that take place within our school.
