School Values and Ethos

The school aims:

• to provide the best possible education for each child within the context of a caring Christian community
• to develop skills and the will to use those skills that will enable the child to acquire knowledge independently and develop a love of learning
• to enable each child to develop self-confidence, a sense of personal worth and to reach their true potential
• to develop consideration for the needs of others and a sense of social responsibility
• to develop understanding of the Christian faith, based on the teaching of the Bible and of the Church of England, and an awareness of Christian values
• to develop personal and moral values and to foster respect for other cultures, religions and ways of life
• to develop a concern for the environment and an understanding of the world in which we live.

Our vision is:

Jesus said: I have come that they might have life in all its fullness [John 10:10]

We seek to encourage the children of Cockernhoe School to develop well in every way- spiritual, physical, intellectual, emotional, moral and social. 

The School values:

Throughout the year, the School has a monthly value taken from Value in Schools.

Here are this year's values:

Every month, the children learn about the importance of each value through lessons, assemblies and times of reflection. They learn about how these values can benefit their lives and  the lives those around them.
