Stowting Church of England Primary School

Vision

With open and enquiring minds, we have a thirst for learning and the ambition to be the best we can be. By living our Christian Values of Peace, Thankfulness, Friendship, Forgiveness and Trust, we are global citizens, setting an example and serving the world as God intends.

 

Our School Bible Verse is: 1 Timothy 4:12 NIV

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but be an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

Spirituality

Spiritual development is a fundamental aspect of children's personal progress that exists beyond faith or religious affiliation.  We work to enable children to develop holistically in order that they become happy, fulfilled, spiritually aware, and socially and emotionally engaged.

 Through these Spiritual Moments we provide opportunities for the children to reflect and think more deeply. This enables them to think carefully about the world around them and to consider the contribution they can make to it. 

Spirituality allows us to experience and appreciate the beauty of our world and all things great. It is that sense of enjoyment and being fascinated in learning about ourselves, others and the world around us.

 

A focus on Spiritual development at Stowting CEP ;

 

  • Will allow our pupils to understand and explore values and beliefs, Christian and beliefs of other faiths and those that are personal and relevant to them and the way in which they impact on peoples’ lives;

  • Will encourage pupils to reflect on their experiences as well as learn from these;

  • Will provide opportunities to understand feelings and emotions and develop understanding and empathy;

  • Will allow pupils to grow and flourish, respect others and be respected;

  • Will promote teaching styles which value pupils’ questions and give them time to reflect on their own thoughts and ideas and explore responses;

  • Will enable pupils to make sense of what is offered to them, understand the impact and make connections that are relevant to them;

  • Will allow pupils to know that spirituality is all around us and it is what makes us who we are.
