Our Values

Barlestone C of E Primary School encourages and promotes Christian Values.  Our pupils, governors, staff, parents and community members chose our four key values:

Friendship – Our school is a happy place where we want the best for everyone, no one will ever be left out.

Perseverance - We keep trying with everything we do and believe, especially when it’s difficult because we want to succeed.

Trust – We believe in the people around us, we know how important it is to be a trustworthy member of our school community.

 Respect – We treat others with politeness and value their lifestyles, beliefs and options.     Everyone is unique and should have their voice.

These values are based on the theological virtues of Faith, Hope and Love

Faith: As God is faithful to us, we try to act faithfully and believe in the people around us. We know how important it is to be a trustworthy member of our school community.

Hope: We have hope because Jesus loves us, so we always persevere, and keep trying with everything we do and believe, especially when it’s difficult, because we want to succeed.

Love: God’s love for us is reflected in our values of Friendship and Respect. We want the best for everyone, and no one will ever be left out. We treat others with politeness and value their lifestyles, beliefs and options. Everyone is unique and should have their voice.
