St Joseph's Roman Catholic Voluntary Academy, located at Wellington Road, Todmorden, OL14 5HP, is a mixed primary school that serves the Calderdale local authority region. Established in the early 20th century, the school offers an age range of 3 to 11 years, catering to children from nursery to Year 6. The school is part of the Romero Catholic Academy Trust and is in the process of transitioning from St Joseph's RC Primary School to become the academy.

In its most recent inspection, the school was closed in October 2019 but was rated as Inadequate by Ofsted due to several concerns. The academy has a capacity of 157 pupils and had 120 pupils at the time of closure. While the proportion of pupils receiving free school meals is slightly above the national average, the school historically achieved an attainment score below the local and national average in reading, writing, and mathematics.

St Joseph's Voluntary Academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the well-being of its pupils, ensuring all staff, visitors, and volunteers are aware of this commitment.
