Download a copy of our vision statement here. As teachers we are often charged with the task of preparing our children for their future. At St. Peters we think a little differently, and rather than prepare our children for a future that is imposed upon them, we aim to give them the skills necessary to create the future that they perceive for themselves.
Today is the tomorrow of yesterday. By controlling today, we are creating the future of tomorrow. Our vision is to develop our children to enable them to create the future they aspire for themselves, inspired by God, influenced by the teachings of Jesus and underpinned by Christian Values; rooted in The Bible and the word of God.
Our intention is that our children will contribute to and prosper in society, bringing Gods plan for them to fruition. Our school purpose is to signal a route to a life that many dont think possible! We aim to maximise social mobility, with Gods support & guidance! What does it mean to Learn, Sparkle & Shine?
We believe our vision will be achieved if we provide our children with an environment in which they will Learn, Sparkle & Shine
