We expect all lessons to be stimulating, enjoyable and innovative. A wide variety of teaching strategies help personalise learning to ensure pupils are able to access the full curriculum, thereby encouraging creative and independent approaches to learning.

Our staff provide a wealth of enrichment activities for our pupils, including residential visits within the UK, Europe and even as far afield as India and the USA. All these visits have educational themes. In addition, there are frequent day visits to centres of specific educational interest that relate to all areas of the curriculum. These opportunities are available to all pupils.

Section 48 Denominational Inspection Report

'Pupils are proud to belong to Cardinal Allen Catholic High School; they are greatly appreciative of all that the school provides and how it supports and nurtures them. They feel encouraged and inspired to live by the school motto and be all that you can be.

Leaders and governors are deeply committed to the Church’s mission in education; they are unequivocal in prioritising the Catholic life of the school. As a result, staff and pupils’ understanding of the school’s mission is outstanding. The ethos of the school is rooted firmly in the teaching of the Catholic Church. The fruits of this ethos are manifest in the pupils and staff in the school; through the very strong relationships and in the profound sense of belonging and of pride that exists. The behaviour and attitudes of pupils observed throughout the inspection were exemplary.

Cardinal Allen is an outstanding Catholic school; the capacity to improve still further is also outstanding.'
