Parents and Carers we need your help!
At St Paul's we are educated for life with the love of God and Christian values at the heart of our school. The daily activity of Collective Worship is viewed as an integral and important part of the school day. The nine Fruits of the Spirit are often referred to, as is Jesus' teaching as shown through the Bible. We value the learning of other faiths and religions and celebrate what they offer in educating our pupils in our community. We are committed to respecting each other’s faith and culture, showing tolerance and understanding regardless of pupils’ beliefs.

Our collective worship is typically led by Mrs Stephenson, Miss Luker and Mr Rylett, the vicar at St Paul's Church. There are times when other members of staff and groups of pupils are involved or lead Collective Worship.
Collective Worship
Collective Worship
Our programme of daily Collective Worship is central in sustaining and promoting our Christian foundation. Different elements of our Christian ethos and values are clearly planned for.
We take the themes of our collective worship from the traditions of the Christian values, British Values and our PSHE programme as well as events of the Christian calendar. Sometimes the themes of our collective worship reflect and build on topics that we teach as part of the school curriculum. We plan our collective worship as part of a series of themes well in advance of the day they take place
Our Vicar, Adam Rylett, leads Collective Worship on a weekly basis. Local, national and international events are drawn on to enhance our worship further and the importance of our Collective Worship themes. This is led by pupils who share their faith with the school community. Biblical teachings and stories are closely related to the school’s Christian values and to events in the world today.
We visit St Paul’s Church to celebrate Harvest, Christmas and Easter and the Leavers’ Service.
Prayer and reflection is also an important part of our school day.
