The Christian Family of S. Peter’s

Relationships with feeder parishes are strong, with parents, priests and school all committed to the education of the children within the Christian family of S.Peter's.

We have a programme of daily worship, a pleasant and well used school chapel, and a carefully designed programme of both Religious and Personal, Social and Health Education, including Citizenship. All students in Years 10 and 11 follow a GCSE short course in Religious Studies.

S.Peter’s is very proud of its close association with St. Peter’s Collegiate Church in Wolverhampton. It is very much our spiritual home which is highlighted by our attendance for whole school worship every term. Our professional and spiritual links with the Diocese of Lichfield are nurtured through the work and activities of the Diocesan Board of Education. Church and Diocese are represented on the school’s governing body.

In acknowledgement of our record of achievement both within and outside the curriculum, in June 1992, S.Peter's was invited to become an Affiliated School within the prestigious Woodard Foundation of Schools, the largest family of church schools in the country. We have our own School Chaplain and many colleagues are closely involved with the Christian life of their various parishes or other Christian denominations. Guests at school assembly, or Eucharist, often include clergy from feeder parishes.

The background of students in S.Peter's reflects the diversity within the city’s rich cultural heritage and our commitment to a knowledge and understanding of other faith communities also reflects the value which we attach to each of our students, not all of whom are from a Church of England family or Christian background.
