Vision and Mission

Bishop Douglass School Mission

We strive to make known to all our community that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life and that God loves us all as unique and precious.
We aim that all members of our community grow in the example of Christ, and live out the teachings of the Sermon on the Mount.
Our pupils are supported to develop their prayer life, as life in all its fullness centres on a deepening relationship with God.
Our community recognises its obligations to see Christ in everyone and to reach out in a charitable and loving way to all people.
