The school’s Christian vision is to THRIVE IN THE GIFT OF LIFE based on John 10:10 - ‘I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.’
Our School Vision was created through a collaborative process involving Children, Parents, Governors and Staff over a period of time. The key word is ‘Thrive’.
As a Church School, we see our whole raison d’etre as being to see life as God’s gift, to receive that gift, and enable all people within our community to thrive in that gift of life. All that we do, whether in terms of academic life, spiritual life, or the values in which we seek to live, enables our school community to live in that abundant life. This does not happen automatically. We work hard to ensure that our Vision permeates throughout the whole curriculum and is an integral part of school life.
We realise our vision through inspiring and nurturing our whole school family to grow and reach their full potential. A strong emphasis is placed on supporting everyone’s mental health and well-being to enable us to reach our goals as best we can.
Each half term we have a Christian value focus as part of our class and whole-school worship. The values of the academic year 2025-2026 are:
Autumn 1: Thankfulness and Celebrating Harvest
Autumn 2: Trust & Celebrating Advent
Spring 1: Perseverance & Celebrating Epiphany
Spring 2: Justice & Celebrating Lent & Easter
Summer 1: Service & Celebrating Pentecost
Summer 2: Truthfulness & Celebrating Trinity
We use symbols so children recognise our values and these can be seen around the school hall.
The work that teachers give pupils to do is interesting, engaging and exciting. It makes pupils think for themselves, reason things out and become good learners.
