‘Small School, big ideas’

The school aims:

v  to provide a safe, secure, caring, stable, disciplined and happy environment in which each child is valued for what he or she is and has to offer and in which every child’s contribution is viewed as being unique and of equal standing;

v  to help each child develop and fulfil their potential in every area of personal development in order that they may take their place in society and be prepared for their continuing education at secondary school and in the world at large;

v  to provide a broad, balanced curriculum which meets all statutory requirements of the national curriculum, religious education and the wider curriculum, tailored to the needs of each individual child;

v  to emphasise the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of each child through its Christian teachings and other regards, where children discover right from wrong, truth from untruth and good from evil;

v  to provide a physical environment in which the aims of the school can be realised;

v  to further develop the education of each child by developing a constructive, nurturing and learning partnership with the home; and

v  to expand its role as a central part of the village community, extending to the wider community and the world.
