The school is situated at the heart of Hulme, close to the City Centre of Manchester and the area has undergone significant re-generation in recent years.

The governors, staff, parents and children wish to appoint a new Numeracy Lead to take up post in January 2015. We provide a nurturing environment where children celebrate their unique heritages and respect differences. We reach out to the whole family and are a trusted part of the local community.

St. Philip's is a happy school with strong community links that benefit from supportive governors and parents.
