Whickham Parochial Church of England Primary School

At our Parochial school we aim to provide a stimulating and caring environment in which every child flourishes, with Christianity at the heart of all we do. We encourage every child to be a light that shines, for themselves, for the community and for the world. We believe that every child is entitled to enjoy their childhood, celebrate their individuality and reach their full potential. We aim to do this through:

Creating a caring school family living by Christian values.
Celebrating effort, resilience and a lifelong love of learning.
Valuing the opportunities we have to serve our school, our community and the wider world.
Offering wide ranging quality experiences that stimulate children’s minds.
Encouraging respect, tolerance and a sense of justice.
Building strong links between school, home and church.
Preparing children for future challenges in a changing world.
