Welcome to St Thomas the Apostle School and Sixth Form College
We are very proud of our outstanding school. Visitors are always struck by the underlying sense of pride, discipline and focus shown by our pupils. The phenomenal teaching our students receive day in, day out sets us apart - all lessons are lively, engaging and support our students reaching the very highest levels of attainment possible.
From the outset of their education, our boys understand that this is no ordinary school and life here means hard work and clear boundaries but within a very supportive and caring atmosphere that ensures they thrive under our care and develop into rounded young people who are capable of success in whatever path they choose.
