We aim to educate all our children in a secure and loving environment, working together to ensure that we provide the positive experiences of success that give confidence and motivation for future learning. Small class sizes, tried and tested methods and individual encouragment mean that pupils in our school learn to read and speak articulately from an early age.

We recognise our parents as their child's first educators and we actively encourage and value the importance of a successful home school partnership.
School is an important time in the life of a child and at Bury Catholic Preparatory School we are committed to making education a happy and rewarding experience for everyone involved. The school is completely independent and while recognised by the Department for Education and Skills, receives no funding from the state.
We believe that its charitable status and its lack of affiliation to any particular Senior School means that the school is unique in the area. Children are prepared for entry into a wide
range of grammar schools thus giving parents much more choice for their child at age 11.
Children transfer to Manchester Grammar, Withington Girls', Bolton School, Bury Grammar Schools, St. Bedes College, Bridgewater School, Oakhill College and local high schools.
