Visitation

25 February 2026

As one of eight Jesuit schools across Britain, our community is proud to belong to a rich and long standing educational tradition. Jesuit schools in the UK share a common mission of forming young people who are “men and women for others,” committed to faith, justice, compassion, and excellence.

As part of that community, we were deeply honoured to welcome the Provincial Superior of the Jesuits in Britain, Fr Peter Gallagher SJ, along with Andrew Johnson, the Provincial Delegate for Education, for a special visit. During their time with us, Fr Gallagher and Mr Johnson toured the school, met with students and staff, and gained insight into our ongoing commitment to the Jesuit Pupil Profile and our work as part of the broader Province. Fr Gallagher also presided over a beautiful and inspiring Mass.

We are sincerely grateful for the time, affirmation, and encouragement they shared with us.
