Whole School Values

 

Our School Vision

 

At Gunthorpe, we always do our best and let our light shine. We do this by growing our understanding of the world that God created, our place in it, our value to it and our responsibility for it. We live this out through our Christian values of forgiveness, service, determination, respect and friendship.

Our vision and values are at the core of everything we do. They underpin our teaching and learning, and provide an environment which prepares our pupils as confident, happy citizens.

 

Our Whole School Values

 

Our distinctly Christian whole school values are: Determination, Service, Respect, Forgiveness and Friendship.  These were selected by the whole school community including staff, parents and pupils.  Underneath each of these values sits 6 habits.  These are the ways children can demonstrate these values. Children collect stickers on their values cards when they are ‘caught’ displaying these habits.  Over time, if children consistently develop the habits of each of these values we demonstrate how it can be  a way of life for them.

 

Each value is also under pinned by a biblical story or principle.  We hope that by the time the children leave Gunthorpe they will have grown to have a deeper understanding not only of the biblical story but of the meaning behind that story and why it is so important to Christians.
