Values, Vision & Ethos

'Learning and growing together with love, hope and joy.'

Matthew 13: 31-32

Hollinsclough CE Academy follows the teachings of Christ by living out strong values in the heart of our local community and growing in love, hope and joy together. Children build a strong foundation for their life journey here. We are proud to be a flexi school and to educate in close partnership with our pupil’s families. Growing and learning together.

We are a small, child-centred, inclusive school where each child and adult knows that they are loved and their contribution is valued for who they are and can grow to their full potential and develop character. Like the mustard seed from very small beginnings, something amazing can grow. We are committed to developing children as confident and courageous advocates who use their uniqueness to make the world a better place. That they will grow and flourish as healthy and fulfilled individuals who are passionate about life and learning and can have amazing futures filled with hope.

“The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”


Our Values

TMPF Trust have a series of values which are shared across the family of schools and are inspired by the teaching of Christ:

Trust

Trust lies at the heart of all relationships. By trusting in God we ourselves become trustworthy just as He is.

Mindful

Being mindful of others leads to a heart of compassion; compassion leads to a desire to act for the good of all.

Peter 3:8
'Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers and sisters, be compassionate and humble.'

Peace

Peace and harmony lead to a stable and secure community where all are nurtured and can flourish.

Matthew 5:19
'Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God.'

Friendship

Barriers are broken down in a loving, friendly community based around God.
