The Church of England has created a strong and recognisable ‘brand’ of schools with a distinctive Christian ethos which underpins all they do. Our schools should offer the highest standards of teaching and opportunities for learning and be responsive to the communities they serve, while maintaining and celebrating their distinctive Christian character. Each school will therefore have its own vision and set of values.
