Our school is a vibrant, values-led community built on high expectations and a belief that every child can achieve remarkable success. Inspired by John 10:10 - *“I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full”*, we are committed to ensuring that our students experience life in all its fullness. Learning here is shaped by both rigour and joy. Through our FAITH values, we set ambitious standards for behaviour and academic achievement, knowing that with clear structure, dedication, and support, every student can excel. Alongside academic challenge, we nurture character - fostering curiosity, resilience, and integrity so that our students grow into capable and compassionate contributors to society. Our aim is simple: to help every young person flourish - academically, personally, and spiritually so that they leave us with the knowledge, character, and confidence to shape their world for the better. We invite you to explore our website, discover more about our school, and contact us to see how we can support you and your child. *Mr A. Brown* *Headteacher* ## **Latest** News [View All News](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/news) ![Image of INSET Day on Friday 20th November ](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/imagecache/560x800c/news/Don-t_Forget_-_FB__(1).jpg) 9 November 2026 ### [INSET Day on Friday 20th November ](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/news/2026-11-09-inset-day-on-friday-20th-november) ![Image of Remembrance Day 2026 at Derby Cathedral School ](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/imagecache/560x800c/news/IMG_1573.jpeg) 3 November 2026 ### [Remembrance Day 2026 at Derby Cathedral School ](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/news/2026-11-03-remembrance-day-2026-at-derby-cathedral-school) ![Image of 🎄✨ Christmas Card Competition 2026 ✨🎄](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/imagecache/560x800c/news/1484267f-d06c-4a1c-8315-fda3098e007f.jpg) 15 October 2026 ### [🎄✨ Christmas Card Competition 2026 ✨🎄](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/news/2026-10-15-christmas-card-competition-2026) ![Image of 🌟 Your Future Starts Here](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/imagecache/560x800c/news/8fd907ee-f341-418c-b2fc-db305c07e3fb.jpg) 15 October 2026 ### [🌟 Your Future Starts Here](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/news/2026-10-15-your-future-starts-here) ![](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/imagecache/540x700c/menu/DerbyCatherdralSchool-DE12SA(116of340).JPG) ### School Ethos [our-vision-values](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/our-vision-values) ![](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/imagecache/540x700c/menu/DerbyCatherdralSchool-DE12SA(250of340).JPG) ### Admissions [admissions](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/admissions) ![](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/imagecache/540x700c/menu/DerbyCatherdralSchool-DE12SA(297of340).JPG) ### Term Dates [termdates](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/termdates) ![](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/imagecache/540x700c/menu/DerbyCatherdralSchool-DE12SA(310of340).JPG) ### Pastoral Care Overview [pastoral-care-overview](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/pastoral-care-overview) ![Derby Cathedral School](https://files.schudio.com/derby-cathedral-school/images/logo/footer-logo.png) **Derby Cathedral School** Great Northern Road Derby DE1 1LR **Derby Diocesan Academy Trust** Unit 3 Endcliffe Mount Deepdale Business Park Ashford Road Bakewell Derbyshire DE45 1GT Derby Cathedral School is proud to be a part of the **[Derby Diocesan Academy Trust.](https://ddat.org.uk)** © Copyright 2025–2026 Derby Cathedral School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.derbycathedralschool.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
