Parents, pupils and staff work together to ensure that we produce confident pupils without arrogance, team players who will stand up for what is right and compassionate, caring members of society. You are warmly invited to visit us at our beautiful 60 acre campus in Ipswich to discover for yourself what makes St Joseph’s feel so different.

We are delighted to be celebrating 100% of our FPQ students achieving A*- A, and 86% A - C for our HPQ students.

FPQ and HPQ projects enable students to study areas of personal interest that can be bespoke to their individual goals and destinations. This kind of qualification can also help to develop research skills and independent learning, with the opportunity to explore topics in greater depth and build confidence in presenting ideas.

A huge well done to all our FPQ and HPQ students.

Today we celebrate the achievements of our GCSE students not simply for the grades they have achieved, but the progress, determination and personal journeys behind them.

Our students join us with a broad range of abilities, ambitions and starting points. Our measure of success is therefore focused on knowing every student, nurturing their potential and supporting them to achieve their personal best.

This year our students attained 16 percentage points above the national average in Mathematics at Grade 4 and above, and 17 percentage points above the national average in English at Grade 4 and above.

Particular subjects where our students have flourished are Fine Art, Biology, History and Spanish.

We are immensely proud of all our Year 11 students. From GCSE success to the next chapter, our students have the confidence, continuity and support to keep moving forward.
