Mission Statement, Aims & Values
Mission Statement
Our school will preserve and develop its religious character in accordance with the principles of the Church of England and in partnership with the Church. We aim to serve our community by providing an education of the highest quality within the context of Christian belief and practice, taking as our starting point the school’s Christian foundation. We encourage an understanding of the meaning and significance of faith and promote Christian values through the experience we offer to all our pupils. These Christian values underpin the whole life of the whole school. Our school is a place where we learn how to love God, one another and ourselves.
