Welcome to our school.

Welcome to St Paul and St Timothy’s Catholic Infant School. We are a large, four-form entry school, set in the Liverpool suburb of West Derby. We cater for children aged 4 -7 years of age.

It is our great honour to work with our dedicated governors, to lead this successful and thriving Catholic school. It is our mission to provide the best quality Catholic education for the whole child, working together with parents, carers, grandparents and our Catholic community. We strive to promote the Gospel values through our mission statement: ‘Love – Learn – Believe – Achieve, in the spirit of Jesus.’

At St Paul and St Timothy’s, we always put our children first.  The health, safety and wellbeing of our children is our primary concern. We have three simple rules to help keep our children happy and safe: ‘Ready, Respect, Safe.’ We also use ROAR. This is a programme which helps children to build resilience and support their mental health and wellbeing.

Our experienced team provide a curriculum which will stimulate, inspire and raise standards for every child in our school.  We have high expectations of all in our school community and everyone is encouraged to work hard and do their best, become confident, articulate and use their abilities to the full.

At St Paul and St Timothy’s, we are very proud of our children and school.  If you visit, you will experience first-hand the happy, inclusive ethos and excitement for learning within our school community.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to get in contact.

Mission Statement

At St. Paul and St. Timothy’s Catholic Infant School we celebrate the individual differences and gifts that God has blessed each and every one of us with.

The mission of schools … is to develop an understanding of all that is true, good and beautiful.”
“An inclusive education finds a place for all.”
“Educating is an act of love; it is like giving life.

Pope Francis

We believe each new day brings the opportunity to express our love for God and one another. We provide a supportive, yet challenging, learning environment where each individual is able to develop their abilities and gifts. Our school is a place where children and adults can express their belief in God; develop belief in themselves and others. We believe everyone in our school community can achieve, whatever their ability. Each achievement is as unique as each individual and all are celebrated. We aspire to equip all in our school community to proclaim the Good News and “live life to the full”.

SCHOOL AIMS

We aim to:

1. create a safe and nurturing school environment in which children and adults feel safe and thrive.
2. provide a loving and welcoming environment within a caring Catholic school family, where everyone feels that they belong, supported in their beliefs and their own faith journey. 
3. offer an inclusive environment where all children are able to learn and make progress from their individual starting points and celebrate their achievements.
4. encourage the children to begin to recognise their developing role in society, celebrating the uniqueness of each individual and embracing diversity.
5. instil empathy, resilience and compassion in all our children, providing them with the attitudes and social skills to take their place in society.
6. Work in partnership with families; developing and maintaining positive relationships between home, school, parish and the wider community.
