Values & Ethos
Our Vision
Let us Love one another for love is from God 1: John 4-7
Learning and worshipping together.
At Tushingham we provide every child with a loving, caring environment where each pupil feels safe, respected and valued. Encouraged by a supportive family ethos and Christian worship which teaches of God’s, unconditional love, Tushingham pupils are determined, ambitious learners, each feeling nurtured as they strive to fulfil their potential. Our Christian ethos and curriculum are interwoven so as to teach children empathy and compassion for others, whilst giving them knowledge, thoughts, actions and attitudes for themselves that guide them to make a positive impact in the world, both now and in the future.
We have 5 core Christian Values :
Respect
Generosity
Compassion
Perseverance
Forgiveness
These values are explored in our Collective worship time, so as to enable and encourage the children to live out our values in their lives.
Aut 1 - Generosity
Aut 2 - Compassion
Sp 1 - Respect
Sp 2 - Forgiveness
Summer - Perseverance
By following ‘The Tushingham Way,' (which forms the basis for our behaviour policy), the pupils are supported to live out these values within their daily lives and develop their own spirituality and worldview.
