About St Jude's Catholic Primary School

St Jude's is a Catholic primary school that serves the parishes of Fareham, Portchester and Stubbington. We take inspiration from St Jude, our patron, who believed that perseverance is the key to achieving success. At St Jude’s we endeavour to give all children a love of God and a love of learning that will stay with them for their whole life.

"Some Room for Improvement"

We've been generally happy with St Jude's, but we feel that the school could do more to engage parents in the learning process. We'd also like to see more flexibility in the homework policy.
