School Vision

We aim to provide a safe, happy and inspiring environment based on our Christian Values in which our children can become:

  • Confident individuals, who demonstrate resilience and can positively face the successes and challenges of life;
  • Aspiring learners, who can take their place in a constantly evolving world;
  • Responsible people, who are able to make a positive contribution to today’s diverse society and local community;
  • Respectful people who are appreciative of each other’s uniqueness and talents whilst being recognised and celebrated for their own.

We want our children to ASPIRE, BELIEVE and ACHIEVE

School Values

Our school's Christian Values:

Compassion     Respect     Courage     Forgiveness     Friendship     Generosity

At Pucklechurch Primary School, children, through their learning, are given the opportunity to appreciate God’s given gifts they and others have. This is done through our focus on Christian Values ‘Friendship’, ‘Courage’, ‘Respect’, ‘Generosity’, ‘Compassion’ and ‘Forgiveness’ . These values are central to shaping children’s social and philosophical interactions. They are explicit in the daily vocabulary of adults and children, rewards and recognition for how we wish children to participate in school and the community and, through Collective Worship, they are directly aligned with the Values for Life.

Our values represent our commitment to developing the whole child and allowing them to achieve a spirituality based on tangible responses to and behaviours in the world around them. The most important thing to us is that they are real and part of what we do. That’s why you can see them displayed all around school in various forms and why our curriculum is values based. Children explore examples of each value displayed in people from history and in the news around them, they read texts that include characters who display the values. 

Children very much demonstrate our values and recognise the message from the Gospel according to Matthew:

'Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in Heaven.' Matthew 5:16
