St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School Reddish is a voluntary aided school for children of five to eleven years of age. There is also a nursery class which offers part time and full time education to children who are between three and five years of age.
It opened on April 1st 2011, formed from the amalgamation of St. Joseph’s RC Infant and St. Joseph’s RC Junior School. The first part of the school was built in 1903 and has served the parish communities of St Joseph’s Reddish and Holy Family Denton for over 100 years. Our school has very close links with our parish, Fr. Philip Caldwell is our parish Priest.
St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School has served the Catholic families of Reddish and beyond for generations. Children of the past have happily become the parents of the present; proud of their school’s strong Christian ethos and its reputation for academic excellence. As a result, we believe that our children are best placed to thrive and flourish when they feel secure in their environment and are challenged by the quality of the learning they encounter. We work consistently to ensure that these two elements remain at the core of all our endeavours.
In applying for the position of Headteacher at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School, you would be seeking to lead a community that is integral to our wider parish family; working alongside a unified, dedicated and happy team of professionals, nurturing the wonderful children in our care. And all this in a beautiful environment, the envy of many provisions in Stockport, the Diocese, and beyond.
