Standlake CE Primary School Vision

We are a community where every member is a light in the world-full of unique gifts, potential and purpose. We are committed to nurturing an environment where everyone is encouraged to shine brightly in who they are and what they do. 

Light of the World    Matthew 5: 14-16

You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone’s house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your father in heaven.

Through our Shine curriculum, we aim high for all, offering both challenge and support so that every child can grow in confidence, character and capability. We believe that by recognising and nurturing each child’s individual strengths, they can achieve their full potential-academically, socially and spiritually.

We enable children to understand their place in the world, who they are and how they can serve others. We actively create opportunities for service to others, helping children understand the value of compassion, kindness, support and friendship - just as Jesus taught.

Our wider curriculum is designed to develop responsible and inclusive global citizens. We help children understand the wider world and their place in it, encouraging them to embrace difference, celebrate diversity, and act justly and wisely.

Together, we seek to be a school family where every light is seen, every voice is heard and every individual matters.
