We believe that the Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural education of a child is integral to their development and their ability to learn, and helps give children the confidence they need to achieve their potential. Our intention is that the children make sense of the world we live in and become the person they want to be.

The school promotes the best possible academic, cultural and moral values in a Christian environment. All our children, regardless of background, culture or religious belief, are equally valued, supported and challenged.

We believe that everything we strive to achieve at St Jude’s can be embodied under three headings: learning, responsibility and happiness. In response to the ideas that were shared by the children, parents, staff and governors we redesigned our school logo, which we believe says it all for us.

The values we hold are......

Our school values can be found on a beautiful banner in the school hall as a reminder of the values that we teach the children to live by. Our Christian assemblies visit these values and are implicit in our behaviour towards each other, whether adult or child, as we live our daily lives.  We want our children, parents and staff to feel part of the St Jude’s Community and to be proud of this.
