Welcome to St Mary's CP School, Kells

It is my pleasure to welcome you to St Mary's CP School, Kells, a happy and nurturing school where our Christian values are at the heart of everything we do and our pupils are happy and thrive. We are not the only ones who think this- Ofsted said (2025):

'Pupils love attending this school. They beam with happiness as they arrive. Many pupils run to their classrooms, excited to start the day. The school instils in pupils that everyone is unique and equal. Its values are central to the life of the school and are lived out in practice by pupils. Pupils demonstrate consistently high levels of respect towards others. Their behaviour is excellent. The school has high expectations for pupils’ achievement. It ensures that they learn a rich curriculum. Pupils achieve well across a range of subjects. Children in the early years get off to a flying start, making rapid gains in their learning.'

At St Mary's, our pupils and families are at the centre of school life. We are proud of the strong relationships we build and the warm, family atmosphere that makes our school such a special place to learn and grow. Every child is known as an individual and is valued, cared for and respected for who they are.

We are committed to helping every pupil flourish academically, socially and spiritually, encouraging them to develop confidence, kindness and a love of learning. Working together with families, we strive to create a community where everyone feels welcome, supported and inspired to be the very best they can be.

I hope our website gives you a glimpse of what makes St Mary's such a wonderful school and I look forward to welcoming you to our school family. If you require any further information, or would like to arrange a visit to school, please contact the school office.
