Maricourt Catholic School, in Maghull, Merseyside, United Kingdom, formerly ''Mater Misericordiae Grammar School'', is one of two Roman Catholic secondary schools administered by the Sisters of Mercy in Merseyside, the other being Broughton Hall, West Derby. The school celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2007 with the new headmaster Brendan McLoughlin MA. The former headteacher Sister Mary Teresa RSM BSc was the last of the Sisters to be Head the school and ceased her duties in 2007, opting to remain as deputy chair of the Board of Governors. The school offers both GCSE and Advanced Level qualifications for male and female students. ==History== The school was founded by the Sisters of Mercy on 12 September 1957, originally known as ''Mater Misericordiae Grammar School''. It opened in the convent parlour of Quarry Brook House, former home of Meccano inventor and Conservative MP Frank Hornby, with only 16 eleven-year-old girls. The school eventually moved to the first small external section in January 1958. This section was formally blessed by Cardinal Heenan on 8 March in the same year. Due to the interest taken in it by the Bootle Education Committee, it rapidly grew in building size and pupil numbers, and became a voluntary aided Grammar School in September 1964, maintained by the Bootle Authority. The school continued to run as a grammar school until November 1967, when the then Archbishop of Liverpool, Dr. Andrew Beck, approached the sisters to see if they would take over a nearby secondary school that had not yet opened, St. Paul's Catholic Secondary Modern. They agreed, and in September 1968 it was annexed to their existing building. It was the first co-educational voluntary aided school in the Archdiocese, opened under the new title of ''Maricourt Catholic High School'', with Sister Mary Magdalen as headmistress. She retired at Christmas in 1989, and was succeeded by Sister Mary Teresa, who led the school until 2007. The school is now the largest Catholic secondary school in the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton. A jubilee mass was celebrated on 21 September 2007 in the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral. The chief celebrant was the Archbishop of Liverpool, Patrick Kelly, with thousands of friends, students, past and present attending the ceremony to celebrate the milestone.
