OUR CHURCH OF ENGLAND PRIMARY SCHOOL

At St. Michael’s, we are committed to nurturing every child to reach their God-given potential within a supportive Christian environment. Our Christian ethos is central to all we do, nurturing academic, spiritual, and personal growth.

Our Vision and School Values

Vision: We serve our community through the values of humility, gentleness, and compassion, where every child can flourish academically, personally, and spiritually, guided by the wisdom and love of God.

Our vision is rooted in enabling every child to flourish spiritually, academically, and socially. We prioritise:

• Theological literacy and the integration of faith across our curriculum.

• Collective Worship as a foundation for spiritual development.

• Partnerships with our church, families, and local community.

We incorporate our school values: Love, Serve, and Grow into the curriculum by embedding opportunities for children to practice humility, gentleness, and compassion through real-life applications, such as collaborative group work, reflection, and community projects.

Parents and pupils value St. Michael’s for its integration of faith into daily life, they say:

• “The Christian ethos is lived out in every aspect of school.”

• “Children are supported to grow spiritually and academically.”

• “The beauty of St Michael’s school is that it encourages a strong community spirit of working together for the good of others. My daughter has formed her own motto from the teaching she has received which is ‘treat others as you would like to be treated’.”

• “The Christian ethos of the school is best represented for me by the children’s respect for each other. From the eldest to the youngest, they show true care and thought in their actions.”

“And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Micah 6:8
