Our School Values
As Head Teacher I am very proud to welcome you to St. Luke’s Church of England Primary School. We are an ambitious and inspiring inner-city school that firmly believes that each child and adult are made in the image of God, who values and loves us all equally, regardless of faith or background. This belief permeates all areas of school life and is at the heart of our philosophy of education, in-turn creating a wholly inclusive Christian ethos and environment. We firmly believe that this philosophy enables our children to be happy, successful, generous and fulfilled as they go through life, enabling them to achieve great things at all stages of their education. There are no ceilings to what our children can achieve and our staff ensure that each child reaches their full potential.
The impact of our school’s 10 core values: ‘Safety; Responsibility; Kindness; Respect; Enthusiasm; Partnership; Fairness; Honesty; Excellence and Courage’, in a Christian context, permeates all aspects of school life. This impacts tremendously on our children’s personal, spiritual and academic development which, in practice, means our children are knowledgeable and want to achieve their very best. This also enables our children to deeply understand, appreciate and respect the incredibly diverse community that we have here on ‘the Island.’ This is evident in the quality of relationships enjoyed by all members of our school community and why our school is often described as a ‘family’.
We encourage all members of our community to live and work by the school’s Christian vision, ‘Hearts overflowing with truth and love’, the origin of which lies in the Gospel of St. Luke itself. We are on a never-ending journey together at St. Luke’s, with our partners at Christ Church, to ensure our distinct and rich Christian ethos contributes heavily to our children’s well-being and learning. We value our close partnership with Christ Church immensely and this benefits our children hugely academically and pastorally.
I hope that you enjoy your visit to our website and that you find the information you are looking for. Please feel free to contact Ms Thomason or Ms Noor in the school office on 020 7987 1753 or at office@stlukeslondon.org with any queries you may have, or if you would like to come and visit our very special school.
With best wishes,
Mr. Calum Howard BA (Hons) PGCE NPQH
