St Francis School, Cospicua, is one of four primary schools in the Maltese Islands run by the Franciscan Sisters of the Heart of Jesus. We are a co-educational, mixed-ability primary school offering a values-based education rooted in Christian principles and inspired by the charism of our Foundress, the Venerable Mother Margherita De Brincat.
Guided by the spirit of St Francis of Assisi, we strive to nurture a culture of care for others, for creation and oneself. Our mission is to provide a holistic education within a nurturing, faith-filled environment; one that shapes students into compassionate Christians while equipping them with strong academic foundations and essential 21st-century skills. Our school follows the National Curriculum Framework, the Learning Outcomes Framework and all mandated educational policies.
St Francis Kindergarten School in Santa Lucia is annexed to our primary school and serves as an extension of our vibrant and welcoming educational community.

Faithful to the charism of our foundress – Mother Margherita De Brincat,we strive to educate the whole person in a value – rich environment, transforming students into true Chrisitans, growing in wisdom, age and grace before God and the people of God,
mastering academic skills in order that they may contribute to and survive in a global neighbourhood.
