Christian Values

Our school Christian Values

Rothley C of E Academy is a Church of England primary school that offers a distinctly Christian education in an inclusive environment where we encourage all children and adults to be the very best they can be.

The distinctive nature of our approach to education is embedded in everything that we do. Our particular Christian values are explicitly taught in collective worship and referred to throughout the school day.

Children and staff of all faiths and none are welcome at our school and our aim is to promote understanding and tolerance between those of different faith traditions.

As a community, we have identified eighteen values that are woven into the very fabric of the school which we expect all members of the school community – children, staff, governors and clergy to model.

Children are awarded our Christian Value Stars for demonstrating particular values.

When thinking about Christian Values we can use the image of a carefully crafted wheel made of three distinct parts—each has an important part to play in the functioning of the whole and should one fail the wheel collapses! 

At the centre of a wheel is the hub, the core which holds the whole together and on which everything depends—the wheel cannot be built without it. For a Christian this has to represent their belief in and relationship with God, and the teachings of the Bible.
