It was founded in 1968 on land leased to Bromley Council by a religious order- The Handmaids of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The school serves three main feeder parishes- St Edmund’s in Beckenham; St Mark’s in West Wickham and Our Lady of the Rosary in Hayes. The school is two forms of entry with fourteen classes and 423 children on roll. Our school’s motto is ‘Onwards and Upwards’ which describes the commitment of the whole school community to providing a high standard of education in a supportive and stimulating environment. Our ambition for our children is that they will flourish during their primary years becoming confident and well-rounded individuals, ready for the next stage in their education. We nurture a close working relationship with our families and do all that we can to ensure that the time our families spend as part of our community is happy and fruitful. Our denominational inspection took place in 2025 said that, ‘*The care of and for each other is deeply embedded with a sense of mutual respect in everything and for everyone.’* Our most recent Ofsted inspection took place in July 2024 and the school was judged to be outstanding in all areas. Inspectors noted that, *'Pupils thrive at this exceptional school. Kindness is at the centre of the culture. Pupils are confident, polite, and extremely hard working. They have a passion for learning and are very happy in school*.' ### Our School - [Welcome](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/welcome) - [Values and Ethos](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/values-and-ethos) - [Contacts](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/contacts) - [Safeguarding](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/safeguarding) - [Admissions](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/admissions) - [Prospectus](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/prospectus) - [Ofsted Report and School Performance Tables](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/ofsted-report) - [Catholic Schools Inspectorate](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/section-48-report) - [Our Staff](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/our-staff) - [Pupil Premium](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/pupil-premium) - [PE and Sports Premium](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/pe-and-sports-premium) - [SEND Information Report and Accessibility Plan](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/local-offer) - [Privacy Notice and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr) - [Policies](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/policies) - [Academy legal and financial details](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/Academy/academy) - [Governors](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/governors) ##### Location Westgate Road Beckenham Kent BR3 5DE ##### Contact Us 020 8650 2355 - Useful Links - [A paper copy of the information on this website is available on request to the school office](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/) © Copyright 2015–2026 St Mary's Catholic Primary School – [View Privacy Notice](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/our-school/general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr) School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.st-marys-catholic.bromley.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
