Spiritual Growth
We are all one in Christ, our mission and our responsibility is to recognise all individuals in our community as part of the body of Christ and to value them accordingly in our treatment of them, thriving and progressing in a spirit of togetherness.
1 Cor. 12-29
United to the mission of the Church below outlines some of the many ways we seek to live, celebrate and promote an understanding of our Catholic faith at All Saints in Dagenham. It is our desire to be an academically excellent school but never to lose sight of the fact that we must be passionately Catholic. As a Christian community we are charged by our Lord Jesus Christ to make disciples who live a life of virtue in imitation of Christ.Holy Mass on Feast Days.

The school has benefitted from the introduction of a house system. The houses give the students a sense of belonging and pride. Each house is under the patronage of a Saint and the students are encouraged to learn about the life of the Saint. This is done so that the students can replicate the heroic virtue which the Saint exemplified during their life.
