Our Christian Values

Our Christian Values were chosen in consultation with all members of staff and pupils. They reflect our school's priorities and the highest aspirations for our whole community over the next three years.

 

  • Mental and physical health, well-being and resilience

  • Developing empathy through charity work, community involvement and global citizenship

  • Growing pupils’ sense of responsibility through school life and social responsibility

  • Working in partnership with parents to enable all children to reach their potential, celebrate successes and strengthen links

 

Our values are: friendship, respect, courage and perseverance. 

 

Friendship - Trust, feeling comfortable in each other’s company, being able to share joys and sorrows are all features of friendship and these are things of immense value. True friendship enables each person to grow and ensures that the unique individuality of each person is recognised. All this echoes the value placed by God on the preciousness of each person.

 

Respect - Respect stems from the belief that all people are created in God's image, and as a result, should be treated with kindness and dignity. This includes showing respect for individuals, regardless of their background, and valuing their opinions and feelings. It also involves treating others as you would want to be treated, the Golden Rule, and honouring the rules and laws of society out of reverence for God.

 

Courage - Courage is the moral and spiritual strength to act with integrity and faith, even in the face of fear, adversity, or opposition. It is not the absence of fear but the willingness to obey God's will, stand up for one's beliefs, and act with perseverance, drawing strength from faith rather than internal fortitude. This value can be expressed in various ways, such as standing by your convictions, saying "no" to peer pressure, persevering through difficult tasks, and following Jesus' example.

 

Perseverance - Christian perseverance is the value of maintaining faith, effort, and determination in the face of hardship, difficulties, or temptation. It is rooted in the belief in God's enduring love and faithfulness, and is exemplified by figures like Jesus and the Apostle Paul, who endured great trials. Perseverance involves not giving up, trusting in God's strength, and enduring with the assurance that God is always present and faithful.
