Values, Vision & Ethos

'Keep your roots deep in Jesus and have your lives built on Him. Be strong in the faith, just as you were taught. Always be thankful.'

Colossians 2:7

Our vision is to be a loving and nurturing Christian school community, providing the rich soil that enables our children to develop deep roots, grow and flourish, to be the best they can be.

At St Bartholomew's C.E. Primary School our vision teaches us that as staff, pupils, parents, carers and Parishioners we can achieve all things through God. As Christians we believe that we are valued and important to God, as He is to us. This is demonstrated in our school vision.

Our school values are:

Kindness, Courage, Creativity, Joy and Respect.


TMPF Trust 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.

Psalm 20:7
'Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.'

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.

Ecclesiastes 4:10
‘If one falls down, a friend can lift him up.'
