Welcome to Our School

We are an independent Catholic school which welcomes children of all denominations. We have a long history of inspiring children to learn. We encourage them to become rounded individuals and are particularly proud of our Music, Drama and Sport successes as well as our academic excellence. Our children aim high in all that they do at Virgo Fidelis. We are fortunate to be able to teach and learn in such beautiful, safe surroundings and are constantly building on our academic and personal successes.

We are happy to show parents round our school so they can see at first hand what life is like here. Children of all faiths are welcome and all that we do here is guided by our Mission Statement, as bequeathed to us by our foundress, Mother St Mary, namely "....to create in the mind and heart of each child a desire to learn, to achieve fulfilment and success."

Simply come along to any of our Open Days which are scheduled for 9.30am to 3.00 pm on these dates:-
2nd October 2010
2nd February 2011
22nd June 2011
or telephone the school office for an appointment.

VFPS is a successful school

Everyone at Virgo Fidelis is delighted by this year's excellent SATs results following hard on the heels of the successful Interim Inspection carried out in May by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Click here for the headlines.

The pupils featured above all won 1st or 2nd prizes at the ISA Art Competition held at Steephill School in Longfield, Kent this June.

Replacing SATs

After consultation and discussion by the Governing Body it has been decided to replace SATs next year with the nationally standardised NFER tests, alongside teacher assessment. This will enable us to set our own timetable for testing and to offer a fuller, more appropriate curriculum to our children. It will also allow us to prepare those pupils who wish it for a variety of entrance exams for senior school.

Results of the tests, for ALL year groups, will be reported to parents at the end of the summer term and submitted to ISI as required.
