Decision details

Values Passport Scheme – This links the school to six Christian Values and was created by the children.  It is an opportunity to demonstrate the Christian Values; love, perseverance, forgiveness, peace, hope and respect in their daily lives and be acknowledged for it.  The children have to show each value three times during their time at school, when they achieve each value once they will be awarded a wristband and when they achieve it for the third time, they will be awarded a cotton badge which can be embroidered onto their uniform.  Once all Christian Values have been achieved all children will graduate and be awarded a medal to celebrate their journey.  The funds will enable the school to purchase the wristbands, the badges and medals to facilitate this project. 

To provide funding of £922.50 to the above project.

Reason for decision:

The project will develop the children emotionally, socially and holistically.  It will enable them to give to their community and prepare them for life.  It will enable the children to engage in a variety of activities to help others and develop a host of essential skills.  Children can be awarded for helping an elderly relative in some way, supporting a local charity, supporting homeless people, achieving something outstanding, eg climbing a mountain or facing a fear.  The rewards will acknowledge all children’s accomplishments and give them a sense of pride as well as enabling them to reflect on how they can make a difference to others.
