Christian Vision
Dove CE Academy, is a loving, safe church school family where our children are given opportunities to enable them to flourish. We provide firm foundations to inspire dreams for children to grow in preparation for future life.
The Good Shepherd John 10:1
Do to others as you would have them do to you – Luke 6:31
The lost coin.
Celebrate with me and rejoice – Luke 15.8
The Good Samaritan.
You shall love your neighbour as yourself – Matthew 22:39
The Mustard Seed.
If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, nothing will be impossible to you – Matthew 17:20
With strong roots and God’s guidance, children develop the confidence and resilience to spread their wings and fly towards a hopeful future.
Respect provides the roots of belonging.
Joy nurtures the roots of flourishing.
Compassion strengthens the roots of service.
Aspiration gives children the wings to fly.
Together, these values enable our whole school community to fulfil Jesus’ promise of “life in all its fullness”, ensuring that every child is known, loved, nurtured and inspired to flourish.
The Dove lies at the heart of our vision and values. As a Christian symbol of the Holy Spirit, peace, hope and guidance, it reflects our commitment to providing both roots and wings for every child. We are a loving and safe school family where children feel a strong sense of belonging, are nurtured and valued, and are encouraged to discover and develop their God-given gifts. Through faith, aspiration and care, we support every child to flourish and achieve their full potential.
