FOUNDATIONS

St Michael's was founded by local residents in the Chorley area over 40 years ago. The founder members wanted a Church school for local children and set about raising the funds to build a purpose built school in the heart of Chorley. Forty years later St Michael's prides itself on the Christian ethos that underpins everything we do.

The school moto is taken from the Bible in Deuteronomy. This encapsulates our aim as a school; to prepare and equip each of our pupils so that they are able to make informed choices in every area of their lives. We believe that successful education addresses the whole of what it means to be a happy, fulfilled and successful adult.

As a vibrant community we choose to Serve God, Pursue excellence and Celebrate the uniqueness of each individual.

We aim to achieve this by:

• Providing a learning experience which develops our pupils in body, mind and spirit
• Providing a learning environment which is ordered and disciplined
• Encouraging and recognising positive achievement
• Setting high standards for all, confident that all can experience success.
