Vision and Values

The School’s Values underpin everything we do and how we relate to each other. They were drawn up in discussion with the children, staff, parents and governors. As a Church School we took our inspiration from the Bible and the instruction of Jesus to his disciples in John’s Gospel (Chapter 13 verse 34) to

Love one another

Our Mission Statement

Love and Faith in Learning Together

The school recognises its role in equipping children to become life-long learners and, in doing so enable them to become fulfilled and productive members of society. As a Church school, our core values are based on the teachings of the Christian faith, and we believe that every child is special and unique.

We encourage, expect and celebrate achievement in all our pupils regardless of their ability, race, background, religious beliefs, gender, or disability.

British Values

We believe that the British Values of Democracy, Rule of Law, Respect and Tolerance and Individual Liberty are expressed through our Community Values and our Behaviour Policies for staff and pupils. They can be seen in the way the school runs on a day-to-day basis.
