iWritten by WhatSchool from official school data (Get Information about Schools, DfE and Ofsted).Welcome to Aughton St. Michael's CE School website. I trust it will provide you with an insight into what our school is about. Our School Vision is to nurture a loving, friendly family ethos, which celebrates the different gifts God has given everyone and encourages the use and development of these talents (Romans 12:6).
For all our family to flourish we aim to foster an environment that is honest and respectful and guide each other in a challenging, positive, kind and collaborative way.
Consequently, our school family will feel supported to take risks in the knowledge they are free to fail and that we will, "encourage one another and build each other up", to have the confidence and belief to try again (1 Thessalonians 5:11). The vision can be summarised in our School Motto .
