'The Best We Can Be'
Vision and Values
Our Vision
Travelling Together…to be 'The Best We Can Be' within the love of God.
Children from across the community are welcomed and valued as they enter our school. We ensure they are safe and able to flourish within our nurturing Christian ethos based on distinctive Christian values of Kindness, Love, Respect, Community, Forgiveness and Perseverance.
Our children are inspired by rich and exciting learning opportunities and encouraged to grow, physically, spiritually and emotionally through the experiences they have and the choices they make.
Our children leave us as independent, resilient individuals who know themselves, respect others of all faiths and none and have an intrinsic love of learning.
Our Christian Values
Our Vision guides the strategic direction of our School, but our Values give us a code by which to live our lives on a daily basis.
As a Church of England Infant School we feel that having shared Values helps to guide our day to day experiences, our relationship with ourselves, our families, our friends and with God.
Our Values are:
Love
Perseverance
Kindness
Forgiveness
Community
Respect
As a school community we live out our vision, and embody the six values that we hold important to us. We do this by travelling together within the love of God. We look to the Bible to see how God wishes us to show these values. The journey that Moses took throughout his life reflects our values of Love, Kindness, Respect, Community, Forgiveness and Perseverance. We teach the children about each value using the events in Moses’ life to illustrate their meaning and lived examples.
Our connection to the Lincoln Diocese is very important to our school and this can be seen in the way that we reflect the Diocesan vision within our own. The story of Moses and the Burning Bush, Exodus 3:1-12, underpins their vision and we have made this link to our value of respect. Along with the lessons that this narrative teaches us of respect, it also shows God’s unending compassion and love. This is something which we share with the children.
Another way that in which we ‘travel together’ both in school and in our wider community is through servant leadership. This is a quality that Moses displays throughout his life as he choses to serve God and lead his people to the promised land. At Branston C of E Infant Academy, by actively engaging in servant leadership, we hope to be the ‘best we can be travelling within the love of God’.
