Welcome

I am proud to be the headteacher of St Mary Redcliffe and Temple School and St Mary Redcliffe Sixth Form. We are an ambitious, successful, and heavily oversubscribed 11-18 co-educational, Church of England, comprehensive school of just under 1800 students, serving families from the whole of greater Bristol and beyond. We are located at the heart of the city and have a truly diverse student community with considerable parental support. Our diversity is a strength and something we celebrate. The Redcliffe Sixth Form Centre houses about 700 students taken from our own school and many other schools across the City.
