About St Mary Redcliffe and Temple School

St Mary Redcliffe and Temple is a successful and heavily oversubscribed 11-18 co-educational, Church of England, comprehensive school of over 1700 students, serving families from the whole of greater Bristol and beyond. We are located at the heart of the city and have a diverse student community with considerable parental support. 53% of students in the main school are from black and minority ethnic backgrounds and 19% of students have been recorded as being entitled to Pupil Premium funding. We educate relatively high numbers of Children in Care. Our diversity is a strength and something we celebrate. The Redcliffe Sixth Form Centre currently houses approximately 700 students taken from our own school and from many other schools across the City.

The School was judged in April 2015 to be outstanding by Ofsted in each and every category. We were also judged outstanding in our last church school (SIAMS) inspection in March 2017. Despite this there is absolutely no sense of complacency. We are a forward-looking school with a relentless focus on providing the absolute best provision so that no child is left behind.

We are passionate about providing opportunity for all staff to develop. Staff are encouraged to develop leadership roles, including working with, and helping to improve, other local schools. All leaders contribute extremely well to improving teaching and learning The school invests heavily and productively in ensuring that staff and leaders have every opportunity to develop their expertise for the benefit of students. Professional development for staff is extremely well planned and implemented; it is linked closely to teachers’ targets for improvement.

Commitment to safeguarding

St Mary Redcliffe and Temple School is committed to protecting our students and ensuring their safety and wellbeing, not just whilst at school but also in the wider community. We believe that as a community, looking after each other is everyone’s responsibility. The School community should respect each other and understand, accept, and celebrate each other’s differences (gender, race, age, religion, sexuality or disability) so that the care, happiness, and safety of every single person is the concern of us all.

We achieve this through our empowered learning curriculum and good relationships work through our pastoral system.
