St. Patrick’s Primary is one of 124 primary schools throughout South Lanarkshire Council.
South Lanarkshire Council is the fifth largest authority in Scotland. It covers the following main areas; Clydesdale in the south which features extensive rural areas, Cambuslang, Rutherglen, Blantyre and Uddingston to the north as well as the towns of East Kilbride and Hamilton.
St Patrick’s RC Primary is a small co-educational school which serves the town of Strathaven, the villages of Chapelton, Dungavel, Glassford, Gilmourton Sandford and Stonehouse and the rural areas to the south and west of Strathaven.
As a Catholic School, we offer our pupils a learning environment which is conducive to spiritual growth and which is characterised by mutual respect and gospel values.
At St. Patrick’s we are aware that the education of your child is a most serious responsibility which you have asked us to share. We aim therefore, to make school a happy, supportive place in which your child will acquire the fundamentals of religious knowledge, develop social skills, moral and cultural values and the academic skills in language, mathematics and all other curricular areas which will enable him/her to learn with understanding and pleasure. An awareness of the duties and responsibilities as members of their community is fostered through developing a sense of equal opportunities and social justice, the encouragement and the practice of good manners, a positive attitude to work, initiative and self-reliance.
We are eager to work with you and the local community in helping each child in our school to reach the highest measure of success which he/she is capable of, and recognising and developing any special skills he/she has, academic, physical or aesthetic.
Mrs Pamela Bradley
Head Teacher
