Ethos & Values

"Bourne To Grow Vision"

Religious Education is an essential element of the curriculum and contributes to the personal and intellectual development of children and young people. The new Agreed Syllabus will help them to develop an understanding of the religious traditions and worldviews represented in our community, preparing them to encounter the diversity of beliefs and values present locally, nationally and globally. We strive to cultivate a sense of shared values and understanding and respect for the diversity of religions, beliefs and cultures that enrich the school community.

Head Teacher's Message
