About our College

All Saints Catholic College is an 11-16 College situated in Huddersfield with very easy access to Brighouse, Rastrick and the M62 network, connecting easily with Leeds, Bradford and Manchester.

Our primary purpose is to provide high quality values led academic education for all our students and to develop the sporting, artistic, music and social potential of each and every one of our young people.

As a Faith College, we work hard to develop our partnerships with our parishes, our local, national and international communities, to outreach, learn from and support those in greatest need. This helps the College enjoy our unique status in Huddersfield as a Faith Comprehensive where we are able to serve the needs of those who seek a Catholic education around the Kirklees and Calderdale areas.

Learning

The most important part of any students experience at All Saints is their learning. We strive to provide the best possible teaching to facilitate the learning of our students. We are constantly employing new strategies and training our staff to ensure they help all our students learn to the best of their individual abilities. We regularly monitor the progress of each of our students and this starts during their primary transition and continues until they receive their GCSE results in Year 11. Regular assessments check progress against teaching and learning as well as providing opportunities for support and challenge where needed. We have a wide range of support strategies to help all our students achieve their potential, including mentoring, extra classes, one to one tuition, assessment advice, student conferences and meetings with parents and carers’ on how best to help their children.

“I am on the council and we get to have our say in lots of decisions, including rewards”

Emblem of All Saints – An explanation

  • The Dove = Symbol of the Holy Spirit
  • The Cross = Symbol of Jesus Christ
  • The Wavy Lines = The Waters of Baptism
  • The Fish = The Disciples being Fishers of People
  • The shape is in the form of a shield. This is to symbolise protection and God being a Protector and shield to his people
