What the school offers its staff

St John Paul II Multi Academy is a highly successful Catholic Multi Academy encompassing seven Primary and two Secondary Schools, all based in Sutton Coldfield, Walmley, Erdington and Aston.

The ethos of St John Paul II Multi Academy is Catholic and was founded by the Catholic Church to provide education for children of Catholic families.

As a Catholic multi academy, we aim to provide a Catholic education for all our pupils. As a Catholic multi academy, Catholic doctrine and practice permeate every aspect of every one of our school’s activities. It is essential that the Catholic character of the school’s education be fully supported by all staff within the multi academy. We therefore hope that all staff will give their full, unreserved and positive support for the aims and ethos of the St John Paul II Multi Academy. This post can be undertaken by either a practising Catholic or someone who is non-Catholic.
