St Augustine's CE High School

We are a multi-cultural, multi-faith school with a distinctive Christian ethos. In October 2019 the High School and St Augustine’s Primary School joined together in a federation to create St Augustine’s Federated Schools known as SAFS. St. Augustine’s is a vibrant and successful 11-19, fully comprehensive school in Kilburn where we encourage everyone, to “be the best that we can be”. Our students enjoy their school lives, and we try to ensure that decisions are made in the best interests of the students or to improve their learning. It is our aim that all students leave us with the skills and abilities required to be lifelong learners and positive role models in the community. We are aiming to prepare them to be citizens of the world by teaching shared values an an understanding of the world around them. In March 2023 the school was graded as a ‘Good’ school with ‘Outstanding’ for Personal Development by OFSTED: “The vision of faith, hope and love is central to this school. The core values of kindness and inclusion are guiding principles.” In November 2022 the School was proud to be awarded Excellent in all categories of its Statutory Inspectorate of Anglican and Methodist Schools inspection (SIAMS): “ The lives of pupils at St Augustine’s are transformed because they are nurtured and cherished by skilled, caring and insightful adults in the school. School leaders and staff, motivated by the school's vision, go to exceptional lengths to ensure that pupils, particularly the most vulnerable have hopeful futures.” We are a Gold awarded Trauma Informed school which means our approach to every child is with curiosity. We teach our students to regulate themselves and pride ourselves on our positive relationships with our students connecting with them before we correct. Being a trauma informed practitioner is fundamental at St Augustine’s, as it underpins our ethos and values to ensure that every child can be the best they can be.
