We need additional funds to offer our pupils the exceptional educational experience they deserve.

At Saint Cecilia’s we offer an enhanced education that goes beyond the basic state provision. Our ability to achieve this is reliant on the philanthropic support of not only our parents but also the broader community, major donors, foundations and trusts.

“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
— 2 Corinthians 9: 7


By delivering an outstanding, enjoyable education with a wealth of opportunities and inspiration, we empower our pupils and students to recognise and realise their full potential.

Collectively investing in their future promotes equity in education, helps to bridge the gap between the independent and state school provision, and fosters a strong sense of connection and community.

We invite all parents to contribute to our School Fund and welcome donations from other individuals and organisations who wish to support our work.

Our School Fund

The school fund allows continued investment in our facilities and extra-curricular offer, as well as supporting our families in need. As a result of donations to our School Fund, we have recently completed the refurbishment of our Bethany (SEND) Centre. We are currently fundraising for the following upcoming projects:

  • Sports Pitch Redevelopment – we have plans to increase our onsite sports pitch space by 20% and fit a new high-performance, year-round sports surface. This will save approximately £40k a year on transport and facilities fees, reduce our carbon footprint and redeploy 39 school hours per pupil per year to teaching. 

  • Science Laboratory Redevelopment – we plan to refurbish our existing designated Physics lab to become a comprehensive science lab for all sciences. This will support teaching, exploration and experimentation in our Biology, Chemistry and Physics GSCEs and A Levels.

  • Compassionate Support – helping our families in need with the cost of purchasing school shoes, uniform and PE kit as well as ensuring every child has a hot meal on school days.

Thank you
Contributions to our School Fund support our ongoing initiatives and improve the educational experience for all pupils and students.

We are incredibly grateful for every donation, regardless of the size, and particularly want to thank those parents who are already donating regularly. Please join them by supporting our school, our families in need and help to give every child a fair chance of success.
