Values and Ethos
At Roberttown school we aim to ensure that all our children achieve to the best of their abilities. Our rich, varied curriculum provides a range of knowledge and experiences so that chidren engage with learning and flourish. Personal development is at the centre of our work and we aim for our children to become confident, caring individuals who play an active part in their education.
Good Samaritans who aspire to excellence in God's world.
As a church school we believe that the parable of the Good Samaritan shows us how we aspire for our school community to live their lives.
Our values are the core British values of:
- Democracy
- Rule of law
- Individual liberty
- Mutual respect
- Tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs
Our overriding value is that of Peace. We believe our accompanying values all work together to generate peace. The life of our school and the nature of our children are reflective of these values in action. In addition as a church school we have the Christian values of:
Deuteronomy 31.6: Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.
Colossians 3:17: "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him."
Mark 11.25: If you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you.
1 John 3:18: let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.
Hebrews 12:1: let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
Colossians 3:12-13: Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.
