Vision and Values
Aim High, be Courageous, show Love and Kindness.
Our strong Christian vision is underpinned by these words from the Bible:
"Keep alert, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love"
(1 Cor 16:13 - 14)
Aim high, 'Keep alert' - look for opportunities to improve, progress and learn new things.
Be courageous, 'stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong'- be brave enough to try new things, make mistakes and succeed; to stand up for what you believe is right and make a difference.
Show love and kindness, 'let all that you do be done in love'-treat everyone with love and kindness at all times; value yourself as a unique creation.
Our vision is that every child and member of our school community is welcomed and valued as a unique individual, supported and empowered to flourish by our caring, inclusive and engaging ethos and curriculum.
Our vision is exemplified by the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10: 25 - 37), allowing children to connect and understand our vision more fully.
Our vision is reflected in our nominated six values (resilience, curiosity, kindness, acceptance, community and care) and our rules for expectations of everyone's behaviour: Ready, Respectul and Safe.
Our school vision was created, in conjunction with pupils, parents, staff and governors in 2024. We were inspired to create a vision that reflects our commitment to all stakeholders of our school to reach their full potential and to always show love and kindness.
HMS - proud to be a Church of England school
“A Christian school is one in which the atmosphere has that kind of openness about it, that sense that people are worth spending time with, that people need time to grow, need loving attention. … It doesn’t necessarily mean that everyone involved has to share the same theology or philosophy … but a Christian school is one in which the entire atmosphere is pervaded by the conviction that there is something mysterious, and potentially wonderful, in everybody.”
Dr Rowan Williams
