Welcome to St. Augustine’s RC High School website! I am Tony O’Doherty, Head Teacher, and it’s my pleasure to introduce you to our wonderful school, where academic excellence, personal growth, and the values of our Catholic faith come together to create a thriving, supportive community.

Our school is built upon the belief that each student has unique gifts to offer the world, and we are here to help them develop these gifts to the fullest. We hold high expectations for academic success, encouraging every student to strive for excellence in their studies and set ambitious goals. Alongside academic achievement, we emphasize the importance of personal responsibility, integrity, and respect—values that lie at the heart of our Catholic mission.

At St. Augustine’s, we take great pride in our uniform, which reflects our shared standards and sense of unity. Wearing our uniform well is an outward sign of the commitment each student makes to their own education and to the respectful, inclusive community we are all a part of. It symbolizes a readiness to learn, to respect one another, and to contribute positively to school life.

Our mission statement, “With respect for each other, let’s make a difference,” is more than just words; it is our shared purpose. Through mutual respect, kindness, and an unwavering commitment to the dignity of every person, we aim to make a positive impact—not only within our school, but in the wider world.

We look forward to welcoming you, whether you are a student, parent, carer or visitor, to join us in this journey. Together, let us make a difference with respect, faith, and excellence as our guide.

Warm regards,

Tony O’Doherty

Head Teacher
