Dedham Church Of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School

Welcome

On behalf of the children, staff, parents and governors I am very pleased to welcome you to the Dedham Church of England Primary School website.

Our Vision – Guide each of us to be a light to the world (inspired by Matthew 5:14)

At Dedham Church of England Primary School, we each strive to be a light to the world: we learn to shine our light to be the best that we can be as individuals; and we seek to shine our light to improve and inspire the lives of others through the actions we take.  As we grow personally, academically and spiritually, the teachings of Jesus light our path and help to guide our actions and the decisions we make. 

Our Values

These values underpin everyday life in school and our staff and children are expected to demonstrate these values as they go about everyday school activities.  Our values illuminate our path: they show us how to be the best that we can be so that we can achieve our vision.

• Perseverance

We work with determination to achieve success and face difficulties positively

• Appreciation

We value and treasure what we have and show our thanks

• Ambition

In all situations we strive to be the best possible versions of ourselves

• Respect

We speak and behave politely to others and take care of the world around us

• Kindness

Our actions show that we put the feelings of others before our own
