Welcome to
Bishop Luffa School
Welcome to Bishop Luffa School!
We are a school of hope, where students are invited to explore their God-given potential.
OUR VISION as a school comes from John 10:10: ‘I came so you can have life – life in all its fullness’. Our aim is to show every child what 'life in all its fullness' means, so they can live out their God-given potential.
OUR VALUES are expressed in our school motto: ‘always our best because everyone matters’. Jesus told us ‘love each other as I have loved you’ (John 15:12). We want all of our students to know that they are loved and to treat other people and the world around them with love and respect.
Staff at Bishop Luffa commit to:
Inspire all students to be ambitious about their futures
Encourage and develop leadership
Develop partnerships within, and beyond, the school
Foster engagement in personal and spiritual development
Nurture a sense of belonging to a safe school and the wider world
Best wishes,
Austen Hindman, Head Teacher.
Our School Captains for 2026-2027 are Matilda de Bathe and Isaac Siddle
Matilda de Bathe
Hello I’m Matilda de Bathe and I am super excited to be your new school captain and work alongside Isaac.
I am studying Law, Politics and Sociology in order to teach English for a year at a school in Peru next September. One of the main reasons I wanted to be school captain is I enjoy working with others and challenging myself. I’m really excited to put my ideas into action, and make school the best it can be!
I’d love to hear everyone’s input so please don’t hesitate to share your amazing ideas with me, and remember to have a great year!
Isaac Siddle
Hi, I'm Isaac, and I'm looking forward to working with Matilda this year as your School Captain. The A-Levels I'm taking are Law, Politics and Geography, with the aim of studying International Relations at University. I chose to apply for the role of School Captain because, though Luffa is good already, I want to make it even better, whether that's by organising whole school events or getting us more equipment. To do that, I need your ideas, so please email us on the School Captain email (schoolcaptain@bishopluffa.org.uk) or speak to us in the corridor.
I'm also excited about telling others about our school at official events, such as open evenings. I have genuinely really enjoyed my time at Luffa and I want as many students as possible to do the same.
