Did you know we have minibuses taking students to and from school from Wolverhampton, Telford, Stafford and Bridgnorth? We also update the routes regularly to accommodate the needs of as many learners as possible.

The national average for achieving five or more A* to Cs or 9 to 4s at GCSE is 61%. Here at St Dominic's it's 89%! :-)

For those of you looking ahead to Christmas, we'll be closing at 1.30pm on Thursday December 13th and reopening on Thursday January 3rd. 🎅

We operate an extended day here at school which means pupils can take part in a huge range of activities starting at 4pm - sports, photography, LAMDA, ultimate frisbee, homework club and more.

Just over a week to go until our Sixth Form Open Evening on Tuesday 4th December from 6pm. It's a great chance to view our amazing Sixth Form facilities and to discuss your options - whether you are currently a St. Dominic's pupil or studying elsewhere. Everyone is very welcome!

It's Anti-Bullying Week 2018, and we are choosing respect! #AntiBullyingWeek

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them. #RemembranceSunday

We are proud to be a supporter of the Wolverhampton Grand to continue the school's tradition in Performing Arts. Are you going to this year's panto? Some of the St. Dominic's team have had a sneak preview... 😁

It's the Prep and Pre-prep Halloween party tomorrow from 3.30pm in the Peakman Hall. Don't forget those spooky costumes!

Good luck to everyone who is taking their LAMDA exams this week, we know you'll do yourselves proud! :-)

Not long til Bonfire Night! If you're planning a display at home, it's worth reading the advice from Shropshire Fire and Rescue to keep everyone safe!
