Head's Welcome 

The Holy Family School is a Catholic 11-16 High School in the Blessed Christopher Wharton Catholic Academy Trust which serves the Parishes and communities in and around Keighley, Haworth and Skipton.

On behalf of all connected with the school, I am delighted to welcome you to our school website. I hope you find the website useful and you get a flavour of all the excellent work we do. If you have any further information that you would like to know or would benefit from a visit to the school site, you are more than welcome to make a time to come and meet me at the school.

Our mission is ‘Awakening Minds, Achieving Dreams and Serving Others.’ We believe this mission will prepare students to be well rounded individuals well able to play a full part in society after the school years are completed.

Whilst we are a Catholic School, we welcome students of all faiths and those of none. For all, the work of the school is driven by a clear set of values and expectations. You can read more of this in the ‘Ethos’ section of the website.

Our dedicated staff work hard to ensure students are inspired, supported and challenged to achieve academic success. Conscious there is more to schools than exam success, we also prioritise pastoral care to secure students’ emotional well-being and social development.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website.
