Holy Saviour is a popular school on the outskirts of Nelson overlooking Pendle Hill.   Our school has a strong Catholic ethos that underpins all we do. Serving an area of high deprivation, we know how valuable our work is in making a difference to young lives.  We have a special mission at Holy Saviour - to educate the ‘whole child’ so that they truly can, “live life to the full" (John 10:10).

We are a well-resourced school that is constantly looking for ways to meet the needs of our pupils in the best possible way.  We have a supportive and dedicated Governing Body that are not only committed to the pupils and families of our school, but also to our staff and their continuous professional development.  Holy Saviour staff are hardworking and friendly and a great team to belong to!
