Our Vision and Aims
Matthew 5: 14-16
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
The bible tells us to let our light shine among people (Matthew 5). At Redmarley Primary Academy we learn how to shine our light in the world through respect, perseverance and recognition of our achievements: sharing our talents with others.
Our Learning Behaviours: Respect • Persevere • Achieve
Our learning behaviours have been chosen to support and enable our pupils to 'Shine as a Light in the World'. We take inspiration for our learning behaviours from the bible and teachings of Jesus Christ:
Respect: Pupils need to respect (God, family, themselves, friends, school, church, village, national and global community). The bible teaches us that it is important to respect and love others (regardless of station) through Jesus washing his Disciples feet.
Persevere: Pupils need to learn how important it is to 'keep going' and have faith that this enable them to succeed (even when failure occurs). Noah's challenge to build an ark exemplifies the importance of faith, commitment and perseverance.
Achieve: Pupils need to find success (academically, personally, socially and spiritually) and this gives a strong sense of achievement. Through trusting in God, Christians find the strength to achieve: I can do all things through him who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13.
At Redmarley C of E Primary Academy the staff and local advisors provide our pupils with the best education that we can; one that excites, engages and motivates them to become independent, lifelong learners. Within our Christian setting we aim to provide a secure, caring and happy environment where our pupils will feel confident to achieve their full potential.
