Our school is a vibrant, culturally diverse, inclusive and friendly academy located in Pocklington a small town in East Yorkshire, which serves our local church the parish of SS Mary & Joseph's and our local community. We strive to accept the mission of Jesus in everything we do, every day.

As a caring school, we welcome you to our school website and hope that you find it full of useful information.

“Christ is the foundation of the whole educational enterprise in a Catholic school. His revelation gives new meaning to life and helps us to direct our thought, action and will, according to the Gospel.” In our own individual ways, all of us at St Mary & St Joseph's share this Christian vision.

St Mary & St Joseph's is a Roman Catholic Voluntary Aided Primary School for children aged 4-11 years. It is a day school for boys and girls.

Rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted at our last inspection in 2023, we are proud of our pioneering, creative and challenging approach to education whilst providing our students with the highest standards of pastoral care and extra-curricular opportunities.
