What makes us a Church School?

- Daily Collective Worship.
- Weekly Choral Worship

- Participation in Church School events like the Church Schools Festival
- Frequent services held at St Thomas Church for days such as Harvest, Mothering Sunday, Christingle, Christmas and our leaver's service
- Representation of Foundation Governors on our Federation Governing Body
- Following our Christian values, rooted in the Holy Bible, of being caring, respect, commitment to achieve, honesty, co-operation, and fairness
- Having a Collective Worship council who help us to plan, deliver and evaluate our collective worship
- Having a emphasis on high quality Religious Education
- Children regularly have the opportunity to pray should they wish to
- Our Church School vision underpins all aspects of our work including our curriuclum, policies, Governors meetings and much more.
