A school which is the heartbeat of the community; reaching out to local families to increase children's aspirations, encourage a spirit of adventure and maximise each child's talents and gifts. We will do this through underpinning the Christian values of generosity and hospitality to create community pioneers. Inspiring children to be people who not only value their community but have the desire, ability and tools to transform and enrich it through innovative and aspirational visions. Encouraging children to dream limitlessly, explore confidently, discover expectantly and take ownership of their futures.
We believe in education for all, allowing each child to enjoy and achieve their full potential at school. We want every child, no matter their ability, ethnicity or background to thrive throughout their education. We intend to create an encouraging and inclusive environment that extends beyond academics and into the community, using links with local businesses, offering practical and vocational opportunities as well as traditional pathways. We want to create an exciting and vibrant school that celebrates achievement and diversity. Education should be engaging and we want to inspire children to learn and develop beyond the walls of a School. Our vision is to link school and community, teaching the value of each other, in order to better prepare both for their futures…
Hope Community School will be a mainstream Primary School for children aged 4-11
‘Hope’ for us is the joyful expectation of good and positive outcomes happening in the child’s life, the opposite of despair.
‘Community’ is not just about the children of the school– it’s about their families. It’s not just the families it’s about their neighbours. It’s not just the neighbours it’s their workplaces, not just the work place it’s the surrounding areas and the people and places they have an effect on.
Our ideal ‘Community’ is where there are no walls or barriers between people, nothing that divides the community. It is a place where people respect and seek to help each other, where there is social harmony and desire amongst all to forward and positively benefit the people and places around them.
Around the clock tower of the proposed school building is carved “be the children of light” which is our hope for the pupils of HCS. We want the community to recognise the children as they walk to school by their behaviour. We want the local shop staff to recognise children from HCS for their manners, politeness and respect for all people. We want businesses to recognise children from HCS for their investigative and entrepreneurial thinking. We want the community to recognise our pupils by their willingness to help beyond themselves.
