About the school
“The Vision and ethos of Good Shepherd Catholic Primary School is closely tied to our school mission statement, ‘Following Jesus, the Good Shepherd, in all we say and do.’ The Gospel values of Jesus Christ underlie what we do at our school.”
Established school - open since before 2016. Became an academy in April 2016, continuing the school that was already there.
