Unfortunately, we have our first confirmed Covid-19 case at the College. We have been liaising with the DofE and Swindon Borough Council.

Following advice, we have contacted parents and have asked 45 students to remain at home for 14 days. These are students who have been identified as having close contact, as per the guidance we have received.

As long as these students are symptom-free, they can return on 14th October 2020.

We will continue to provide an education remotely to these students, to ensure as little disruption as possible.

We have also sent a letter to all other parents advising them of the positive case. Please click here to view this letter. 

Any questions from parents can be sent to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

We will do our best to continue education for all students in these challenging times.

GCSE Results

Following the announcement from Ofqual, the exam regulator, it has been confirmed that students will be awarded their centre assessment for this summer. That is the grade that their school or college estimated was the grade they would most likely have achieved in their exam, or the moderated grade, whichever is higher. The full statement can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/statement-from-roger-taylor-chair-ofqual

St. Joseph’s is committed to supporting all of our students through what has been an extraordinarily difficult time, and we hope that students see their results as a fair judgment of the work that they were able to do in the time they had on the course. We wish them all the best for the next phase of their education.

Please be assured that information regarding the next steps for September will be sent next week. 

Mr P. Hughes
