School of Sanctuary
We are delighted to have been awarded the School of Sanctuary status for the second time—a testament to our ongoing commitment to providing a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for all, especially those seeking sanctuary.
During the award visit, our children showcased the school with pride, sharing their experiences and speaking highly of the supportive and nurturing community we have built at St Michael’s.
What is a School of Sanctuary?
A School of Sanctuary is a place where everyone—especially those fleeing danger, facing challenges at home, or simply seeking a safe space—feels valued, respected, and supported.
At St Michael’s, we work to deepen our pupils', staff's, and wider community’s understanding of what it means to seek sanctuary. We strive to extend a warm welcome to all, fostering a culture where every individual is recognised as an equal and valued member of our school family.
We are proud to be a school that stands for safety, inclusion, and kindness—a place where everyone belongs.
