Living and Learning with God by our side
Our vision is the reason that we come to school every day. Everyone in our school is totally committed to our visions and our core Christian values guide that the way that work with each other in our pursuit of providing the best opportunities for our children.
Our Mission – what we do
This is our church school, where we all live happily together. Every day is a new opportunity to enjoy life and learn from each other.
Vision - why we are here
At Whittington CE Primary School we provide children with a toolkit for life. We are passionate about the development of the ‘whole person’, preparing our learners for an ever-changing world. We are relentlessly committed to helping everyone in our community to meet their potential, to raising their aspiration and to helping them to find their special talents.
Core Christian Values – the way we work
Our vision and mission are underpinned by our core values, which reflect the qualities and attributes of the Christian ideal.
These are:
Love – we treat others as we would want to be treated, in the way of Jesus Christ. ‘Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.’ (1 Corinthians 13:4-5) |
Honesty – we are truthful, with a strong moral principle ‘Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.’ (Matthew 5:8) |
Courage – we embrace new and challenging experiences ‘Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.’ (1Corinthians 16:13) |
Quality – we try our best in all that we do ‘Let’s not get tired of doing what is good, for at the right time we will reap a harvest – if we do not give up.’ (Galatians 6:9) |
Community - we help each other to learn ‘And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.’ (Hebrews 10:24-25) |
These are the principles that drive our behaviour. We expect this from everyone in our community.
