Our vision is to ensure that we, at the West Tyne Church Schools Federation, inspire, support, believe and achieve.
Inspire – We encourage and motivate our children to inspire them to become independent students, creative thinkers and lifelong learners. Our broad and balanced curriculum gives our children the skills, knowledge and transferable attributes to succeed in life.
Support – We create a happy, secure and stimulating learning environment in which all children, members of staff and the school community can grow and develop. We support pupils with SEND with carefully personalised support plans, support our community by flattening the walls of the school to promote engagement and cooperation and support our children by giving them ownership of a curriculum which is tailored to their needs.
Believe – Our children are at the heart of everything we do – we actively listen to what they say and ensure they know that they can make a difference to the world. We use our Christian values to show our belief in God’s teachings. We encourage children, parents and staff to believe in themselves and each other, to be resilient, resourceful and to reach for the stars.
Achieve – We celebrate achievement; be that academically, socially, spiritually or morally. We use our values to strive for excellence, enabling our children to achieve their highest potential in all areas of the curriculum and within their own lives. We enable our children to achieve their potential at key end points and achieve their personal best in all they do.
Our Values
We live by, recognise and celebrate our Christian values through our whole school promise, which is known by our whole school community. We reward our children who are good role models in achieving our school promise during our weekly Celebration Assemblies.
Wisdom gives us strength in all we do
Endurance keeps us going, trust in teamwork too
A thankfulness to God and community is right
Respecting his creation, the gifts we hold tight
Everyone’s forgiven, kindness big and small
We value humility, justice for all
Peace and friendship for all to see
Striving for koinonia is where we want to be
