From the Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Primary School
Our Lady's Catholic Primary is situated in Seacroft on the North-East edge of the city of Leeds. We are a one form entry school providing education for 3-11 year olds. The school's ethos is firmly based on the Christian Gospels and our aim is to provide a caring, secure and disciplined environment where pupils can reach their potential and become increasingly independent. As a Catholic School we believe that every child is a unique being of God's creation. Our school is a place in which we value all people who we encounter in daily life and appreciate the range of different God given gifts we all possess. During their time at Our Lady's, we encourage our children to become confident in their abilities so that they can use their gifts to the full. We believe that a close partnership between parents and school is the key to success and encourage parents to be as fully involved as possible in their child's development.
