Vision and Values
Our Vision
Every Child, Every Chance, Every Day.
'Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.' Proverbs 22:6
We believe that through developing children's resilience, perseverance, determination, enthusiasm and teamwork, coupled with our strong Christian values, our children will become the very best version of themselves, with the ability and desire to make a difference in the world as they grow and flourish in life.
Our Values
We want everyone involved with our school to GROW and make our schools a place where everyone:
is grateful for our caring community and can feel safe, surrounded by God’s love;
works and learns together showing respect and understanding;
aims to be outstanding and has the opportunity to be the best that they can be;
all children, their families and the community we serve are welcome.
Our School Code
At St James’ Church of England Junior School we:
Give thanks every day
Remember our manners
Only ever do our best
Walk around school wearing a smile
