St Thomas Becket Catholic Primary School

St. Thomas Becket Catholic Primary School is a vibrant and welcoming educational community located in South Norwood, Croydon. As a dedicated Catholic school, we provide a nurturing environment where both existing and prospective families are greeted with warmth.

We pride ourselves on being a school where all stakeholders, staff, parents, and pupils work together to ensure successful outcomes and a supportive "Becket family" atmosphere for every child in our care.

Our school is guided by a clear mission: to be a place where children develop spiritually, creatively, physically, socially, and academically.

We place a high value on the unique talents of every individual, rooted in the core principles of compassion, tolerance, and forgiveness. Our strong Catholic ethos serves as the foundation of our curriculum, encouraging pupils to grow in the light of Christ. We are a diverse and inclusive community that celebrates differences, ensuring that every child whether from a Catholic background, another faith, or no faith feels valued and respected.

We are committed to maintaining exceptionally high academic standards, with our pupils consistently exceeding national and local average scores by considerable margins. Our dedication to excellence is reflected in our most recent Ofsted inspection, which awarded "Outstanding" judgements for both personal development and early years provision. Beyond the classroom, we strive to bring learning to life through an exciting curriculum, a wealth of enrichment opportunities, and frequent educational trips. Our skilled staff team is dedicated to providing an inclusive environment where pupils can flourish, build positive relationships, and reach their highest aspirations.
