Our Christian Values

Live, Learn, Thrive; Love God, Love each other

‘Love the Lord you God with all your heart, with all your mind and with all your strength. Love your neighbour as yourself.’

Luke 10:27

At Skerton St Luke’s CE School we are a family that works to ensure everyone thrives, with the love of learning and Jesus’ teachings at the heart of all we do. From a curriculum that encourages pupils to ask questions and find answers, to a community that is bravely making the world a better place; together we show each other how to love God, love ourselves and love each other.

As a Church of England school, we have rooted our 6 School Values in our faith. Our values are important to us. They are displayed around school, something that we talk about often and are lived and breathed by all members of our community. We want our values to reflect what we, as a school community, want our children to rely upon when times get hard.

Testimonials

It’s a lovely community. We all feel like a part of St Luke’s family. My child loves her teachers and knows other members of staff. It’s lovely to walk into school and people know my child’s name and always say hello to her, even teachers from other classes or Mrs Armistead.

I know when I drop my kids off they are happy and safe and they both enjoy their time in school.

Thank you for not only teaching my daughter but also caring for her. She’s really happy at school and is making great progress in all areas of learning.

The staff have been so supportive of my child with Special Educational Needs. They are amazing and it makes me confident that my daughter is well looked after and if she has any problems they will help.

Parent of a child with SEND

The Reception Open Day really showed the school in a good light. The Headteacher showed us round and knew all of the pupil’s names. All of the children we met were friendly and polite but more importantly they were all smiling whilst learning.
