CHRISTIAN DISTINCTIVENESS 

We are proud to be a Church of England Primary School, linked to the beautiful and historic St Mary's Church, which borders our site and offers many rich opportunities and resources through which children can explore the Christian faith. 

We share the The Church of England's Vision for Education; a vision that is deeply Christian, with Jesus' promise of 'life in all its fullness' at its heart.

The education at St Mary's is distinctively Christian. Although each church school is unique, all church schools will share core values based on the Gospel values. Our school is a place where loving God, and loving our neighbours, is lived out on a daily basis.

Let the gift of grace and the understanding that come from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ help you keep on growing. Praise Jesus now and forever!
Amen.                                                           2 Peter 3:18

Our Instrument of Governance says... 

Recognising its historic foundation, the school will preserve and develop its religious character in accordance with the principles of the Church of England and in partnership with the Church at parish and diocesan level.

The school aims to serve its community by providing an education of the highest quality within the context of Christian belief and practice. It encourages an understanding of the meaning and significance of faith and promotes Christian values through the experience it offers all of its pupils.
