Welcome to St Thomas the Apostle College www.stac.uk.com As a Catholic community, our mission is to serve Christ and one another, by creating a caring learning environment, where prayer, education and achievement are celebrated and valued. We recognise and respect the unique nature and dignity of each and every person. St. Thomas the Apostle College opened in September 1965 as St Thomas the Apostle School. The initial intake came from 2 Schools -- English Martyrs and St Francis. In September 1967 boys from Archbishop Amigo also joined. The founder Headmaster was Mr W Uden and his first Deputy was Mr D Crawford. Mr Crawford retired in July 1982 and Mr Uden at Christmas 1982. Dr Tope retired after 21 years as Principal in July 2004 and was succeeded by Damian Fox. Initially there was a 6th. Form but this was lost after the reorganisation of Catholic Schools in 1985 due to falling rolls. The College became Grant Maintained in September 1994 and became known as St Thomas the Apo! stle College. In 1998 the College reverted to a Voluntary Aided College. Mr Fox resigned in December 2010. Mr S. Cowdry is the Acting Headmaster with Mr S. Cefai as Executive Head.
