Welcome to Saint Edmund's and Saint Thomas' Catholic Primary and Nursery School, Waterloo.
We serve the Waterloo parish communities of St Oscar Romero ( Saint Edmund of Canterbury and Saint Thomas of Canterbury) and our school provides for children from three years old to eleven years old.
We have 315 school places in the main school (Reception to Year Six) and currently 52 part-time places in our Nursery. The school has a planned admission number of 45 Reception places every September and we are thus organised by a one and a half form entry intake.
The school thrives on its community ethos and our families who have enriched the school culture over successive generations with great commitment to the ongoing success of the school.
Over the last ten years the school has had to reorganise and modernise its accommodation and environment from two sites to one site and this has been achieved whilst maintaining a relentless drive to raising the children's standards of achievement.
Successive inspections have commended the school on the good quality of education it provides as well as external agencies such as Basic Skills Agency and Primary Science Mark validating thje quality of specific areas of provision.
A highly committed staff and governing body and an industrious PTA ensure that the principal focus and school's aims are targeted at its children whose parents have chosen Saint Edmund's and Saint Thomas' for their primary education.
This website is designed to give you a flavour of the variety of activities in which children engage over time in school. We hope that you find it useful and that it reflects a happy, stimulating and challenging experiences of all the children in our care.
Our children's own Mission Statement clearly embodies our aims and expectations for all.
Love Learn and Live like Jesus
