Let your light shine - imagine, believe, achieve, thrive Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.
Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, your actions become your habits, your habits become your values, your values become your destiny. I am always doing things I cant do, thats how I get to do them.
Winter 2024 Chadlington school was inspected by a SIAMS team, a Church of England body that supervises the spiritual health and education of Diocesan schools. The children and staff responded with characteristic enthusiasm and strength and these are a few of the headline quotations from the Report .
Chadlington Church of England Primary School has a deeply embedded and treasured Christian vision. A set of recently refreshed supporting values are carefully chosen to serve the needs of this small, rural community. The values of thrive, imagine, believe and achieve are a driving force through which dedicated leaders and staff live out their vision.
