St Dominic's Grammer School, on Bargate Street, Brewood, is a school where pupils pride themselves on growing not only as learned students, but as independent members of the community also. 

The school's motto of 'inspiring growth in mind, body and spirit' is a key term not only for those who attend the school, but also for staff as they encourage their community's young people to thrive in all aspects of their learning journey.

Through the term 'mind', the school encourages its pupils' independent learning and developing the talents and gifts of each student. 

The term 'body' encourages learning through a healthy and enjoyable lifestyle, placing a high account of active and outdoor learning. 

The term 'spirit' encourages not only awareness of self, but also of Christian fellowship, with students and staff placing a high importance on 'community'.
