Collective Worship, Thursday’s 12.15pm
The course that we are following is to encourage the children to think about collective worship and enable them to play an active role in it.
Pupils are working towards gaining their Bronze, Silver and Gold certificates.
To achieve these three levels they are exploring a sense of space, community and wonder together with Christian traditions.
Our aims:
- To provide a caring, happy school within a Christian framework, in partnership with home/parents which will promote in the child self-esteem and confidence and enable the child to develop the knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes necessary for later life.
- To focus on raising standards in the school to ensure that children reach their highest potential.
- To ensure that every child works at his/her own level of attainment according to his/her stage of development and ability and encourage high standards of achievement.
- To help pupils to develop lively, enquiring minds, the ability to question and argue rationally, to apply themselves to tasks, and develop physical skills.
- To provide equal opportunities for all pupils with due regard given to gender, ethnic origin and religious faith, physical and sensory disabilities.
- To help pupils to understand the world in which they live. To implement the National Curriculum within the context of the whole curriculum.
