At St Joseph's Park Hill School we aim to provide a broad and balanced curriculum to ensure that pupils reach their potential and develop positive attitudes to work.  Children are encouraged to develop spiritually, mentally, physically and socially within a Christian framework.  Our children are taught to respect and care for each other, and show tolerance to others, including those of other faiths and cultures.  We expect high standards of behaviour both at work and play, where independence and a sense of responsibility are valued and encouraged.  Pupils are aware of the fragility of the environment and conscious of our responsibility for it.
