St Richard’s is a co-educational Catholic school offering an inclusive Christian education to pupils of all abilities from the ages of 11 to 16 years. It is our aim to encourage, support and develop every pupil in our care academically, socially and spiritually.
We have high academic standards at St Richard's, as our GCSE results consistently testify. In 2025, we secured outcomes that placed us as the highest attaining school in both East and West Sussex, yet we are not an 'exam factory' and whilst excellent teaching and learning is a cornerstone of our provision, it is our wider expectations and strength of our relationships which really underpin what we are about. For example, we expect our pupils to work hard, behave well, dress smartly and pursue excellence in all that they do inside and outside of the classroom. We also aim to provide a happy, caring and safe environment in which pupils can learn and develop into rounded, responsible and confident members of the community. We are, at heart, a family and a 'school which changes lives' (Catholic School Inspection, March 2025).
Our efforts have not gone unnoticed and we are well decorated by external agencies. We have a Prince’s Teaching Institute Art Mark, Leading Edge status, Fairtrade Fair Achiever Award status, an Artsmark Gold Award, a Space Education Quality Mark, Green Flag Eco-Schools Award and Investors in Careers at the highest level. We have also been awarded numerous times by the SSAT, currently holding Exceptional Education Awards, Engaging with Key Stakeholders, Climate for Learning, Leadership through Moral Purpose, Professional Development, Variety of Teaching Approaches, Exceptional Pupil Performance and Exceptional Pupil Progress. Perhaps most importantly, however, we were cited as 'the happiest school in Sussex' based on Ofsted feedback in Spring 2025 and our attendance rates are also the highest in the County: testament to the support we enjoy from our parent and carer body. When we were visited by the Catholic School Inspection team earlier this year, they found us to be 'outstanding' in every area against a new and very stringent framework. We have a proud history and legacy of providing a remarkable standard of education and care, yet we also look forward to our future with a vibrant energy and commitment to be even better, nearer and closer to God, which is what our patron, St. Richard instills in us through his example.
We would all agree that every child is unique and precious with different talents and aspirations, and our efforts are directed into ensuring that they feel both valued and challenged
