Our Core Christian Values

Our Christian Values shine through in all we do at Claypole Church of England Primary School.

KOINONIA:  We believe quality relationships and partnerships are a central element of interdependence: all are needed and valued and each person is important to the whole. In John 17, Jesus prays that all his followers may be 'perfectly one' as he and the Father are one.

Corinthians 12:12-13 The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body …

RESPECT:  We respect others from all cultures and religions.  We learn about others to allow our respect to grow.  We listen and learn from others.

Matthew 7:12 “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you.”

EXCELLENCE:  Whatever we do, we will work at it with all our heart, as if working for the Lord, which underscores the call to pursue excellence in our endeavours. We know sometimes things can be difficult but we keep on going and with God's help we don't give up.

Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things."
