Vision, Ethos & Values

Our core vision is to ensure that every child who is a member of the St. John’s Catholic school community is provided with meaningful and purposeful learning opportunities that will enrich and allow each child to grow. We encourage and develop each individual’s spiritual development at the same time as providing them with a rich, academic curriculum. We celebrate and develop the talents, interests, and God-given gifts of each child. It is our hope that this will allow every pupil to forge sound values and principles for life – as well as enabling them to become high-quality learners.

Our mission statement is ‘Let the light of Christ Shine in us’. It is important that we as a school can offer the opportunity for children to shine like that light.

We aim to do this through linking closely to a core set of Gospel Values (aligned with those of the Diocese of Westminster Academy Trust). These are:

• Kindness
• Forgiveness
• Peace
• Compassion
• Courage
• Justice
• Humility
• Integrity
