Values for Life
At Charles Williams Primary school we recognise the major
influence that school and individual teachers have on developing
values of the pupils we teach. Our pupils learn important Christian
values at school from relationships, everyday classroom interactions
from the examples set by teachers and more formal attempts to
engage in Values Education.
At Charles Williams Church in Wales Primary School, Christian
values are transmitted through:
The management, stated mission and aims of our school which is
reflected in the ethos.
Teachers’ example and use of moral language, which helps pupils to
internalise ideas of what is acceptable and not acceptable in the
living, working community of school.
The subjects of the curriculum.
Collective worship, which is an opportunity for school to explore
together Christian Values.
Learning that helps pupils to comprehend imaginatively the equal
importance of other people and helps individual pupils in the search
for meaning and the purpose of life.
Twelve Values for Life have been selected, with us focusing on six
values each academic year.
