St Mary’s was the place where it all started - it was a school that didn’t hold you back and encouraged you to work at your strengths.
                                                                               Simon Rix, Kaiser Chiefs

The great thing is they’re so keen to support everybody.
                                               Matthew Lewis, Actor (Harry Potter and more)

Former Students

We are very proud of the achievements of our students. St Mary's is a supportive environment which sets the foundation for success in the wider world. Many of the students below regularly return to school and help support our work such as the Bambisanani Partnership and celebrations of achievement.

 

We are always keen to hear from former students about their achievements and career progression. Please contact us with news of your success and a photograph if appropriate. We can then make contact and follow up on many more success stories.

St Mary’s gave me the opportunity to achieve academically whilst encouraging and supporting my development in sport. I enjoyed my years at St Mary’s and will always be thankful for the opportunities given to me.                                  Aidan White, Leeds United and Republic of Ireland U21

Students aspire to do well due to the support of their teachers and aspirations they have. Many recent students have become famous in their chosen area of work, such as acting in Hollywood films, joining renowned British pop groups, and excelling in national sports or performance in national ballet groups. This exemplifies the nurture given to students over recent years to become whatever it is they want to become.                                                                                           Miss Hattersley, Headteacher
