The Thomas Coram Middle School

Thomas Coram Middle School

The Thomas Coram Middle School is a thriving and good Church of England Middle School for approximately 380 pupils in the 9 to 13 age range. The Aim of our school is to ensure that our young people succeed and become confident young adults, equipped for life in the 21st century.

In a recent SIAS report the school was commended in its “approach to the nurture and education of children being rooted in its Christian values. This is enriched by the active part the church plays in the life of the school. As a result pupils grow into responsible and compassionate young people who show respect and a keen interest in the beliefs and opinions of others.

The Christian values of the school clearly shape pupils’ positive attitudes to diversity in society and prompt them to take their responsibilities in the community very seriously.”

Both Victoria First and Thomas Coram Middle are “Voluntary Aided” Schools. This means the school is owned by the church of England, a majority of the governors are appointed by St Peter’s Church, the teachers are appointed and employed by the governing body, the cost of repairs and capital projects is raised by the governing body with 90% grant from the DfES, religious education and worship are distinctively Anglican (Church of England) and the governing body is the admissions authority.

At St Peter’s we celebrate our responsibility, but also the opportunity to participate fully in our church schools, to offer encouragement and remain true to our Christian values to seek the best for all people.
