Christian Distinctiveness
Proud to be a Church of England School
Archbishop Cranmer Church of England Primary Academy is a caring and Christian community. Our whole school community of children, parents, staff and governors have contributed to articulating our vision for the education we aim to provide and as a parent, pupil, visitor or member of staff you will find that our school aims to offer the best education, as other schools would, but the way in which the school works is different and distinctive, rooted in our Christian values that affect the way in which everyone behaves and the way in which everyone is respected. In order to nurture children’s spirituality, we ensure that Archbishop Cranmer Academy:
- Is led by a Headteacher who is committed, with the help of staff, to maintain the Christian character of the school.
- Enables children to engage meaningfully in a daily act of Christian worship.
- Offers school life that incorporates the values of the Christian faith.
- Ensures that 5% of curriculum time is devoted to Religious Education.
- Observes the major Christian festivals.
- Ensure those children of other faiths are able to and encouraged to mark their major festivals with integrity.
- Maintains and develops an active and affirming relationship with the local Church Community.
