READY RESPECTFUL RESPONSIBLE REFLECTIVE RESILIENT
Our Christian Vision for our School
Our vision for Ewelme CE Primary School, our ambitions for our pupils and the mission statement set out below are rooted in the school’s strong Christian values and have been developed by all stakeholders within the school, including staff, pupils, parents and governors.
School’s Mission Statement:
“Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” James 2:4
At Ewelme we aim to develop young people who are ready, respectful, responsible, resilient and reflective meaning that, by the end of Year 6, they are not only well prepared for Secondary school and the world beyond in terms of their academic attainment, skills and knowledge, but also their values, mindset and character.
