Our Vision and Values

Vision Statement

 “Life in all its fullness” (John 10:10)

Our vision is to ensure that our school family are happy and fulfilled in a creative learning environment. This is flexible and caters to individual needs while developing a life-long love for learning through which all members can flourish. We nurture an aspirational family of hard-working, respectful individuals who work collaboratively.

 

Our Christian Values

We shall achieve this vision through the promotion and celebration of our six Christian Values. Love, Hope, Courage, Respect, Creativity and Forgiveness.

We wrote our vision in September 2018 based on our pre-existing motto ‘All Different – All Equal’. It was a collaborative process starting with an inspiring session with the diocese and then leading to all stakeholders having their say. In the Bible, John 10:10 tell us that Jesus said “I have come that they may have life in all its fullness.”  Everyone agreed that this would be a fantastic introduction to our vision. Life in all its fullness is about living a varied and full life bursting with learning, growing, helping, reward, joy, excitement and caring for each other. At school we aim to help each other to learn how to do this.

Our vision is lived and breathed by us here at Wycliffe! It is the basis for our vision for the entire curriculum which you can see here by clicking on the link below:

We recognise that we represent only one of several key stepping stones along a child’s educational journey through life and, therefore, we aim to provide all of our pupils with a sound start to their education, and a smooth transition to subsequent senior schools.

Our ethos is based upon Christian principles. We seek to provide pupils with a clear and solid moral framework, part of which is tolerance of the different beliefs and cultures of others, and equal opportunities for all.

Wycliffe welcomes children from all faiths. The main Christian festivals will be celebrated in a traditional manner, but important religious festivals of other faiths are also discussed and enjoyed.
