From the Knowle Church of England Primary Academy
The following values are shared, owned and understood by our whole school community, including parents, governors, pupils, and staff. We have adopted St. Paul's analogy of 'The Fruit of the Spirit' which are our core Christian values and underpin the ethos of the school. Find joy not just in earthly things and not from triumphing over someone else, but rather through counting our blessings, growing an appreciative heart, and knowing how precious each of us is to God. No matter what occurs, we may be assured that we are in God's hands. Show people that they matter and that they have value by giving time, listening, showing empathy and concern. Help others and speak up for those who are unable to defend themselves. Be cautious and aware of our power and the harm it can cause if it is not kept in check. Learning to take responsibility for our actions and the value of maintaining self-control even under pressure.
