SCHOOL AIMS:
In a rapidly changing world and in partnership with our families and the community we help children to:
- develop and act on a personal set of moral values, beliefs and attitudes founded on Christian principles, and to recognise and value a sense of right and wrong,
- to gain an understanding of and respect for religious and moral values, an acceptance and openness of other groups, races, ways of life and points of view
- enjoy learning and become independent, self disciplined and self motivated children that achieve the highest standards of which they are capable,
- develop an awareness and appreciation of human achievements and aspirations, in our own and other societies,
- develop enquiring, imaginative and creative minds with the confidence to question, and the ability to challenge with knowledge and respect.
- develop a concern for the quality of their environment and an understanding of the world in which they live,
- develop, promote and encourage a healthy, active lifestyle
Church of England Vision for Education
This document outlines the Church of England’s Vision for Education which as a Church of England School we embrace.
“The vision embraces the spiritual, physical, intellectual, emotional, moral and social development of children and young people. We offer a vision of human flourishing for all, one that embraces excellence and academic rigour, but sets them in a wider framework. This is worked out theologically and educationally through four basic elements which permeate our vision for education: Wisdom, Hope, Community and Dignity.”
