Here at Loddington CE Primary School, our vision is underpinned by the bible verse John 10:10.
Jesus said, “I have come that they may have life and have it in all its fullness.”
On Thursday 15th February 2024, we explored this verse in each class and as a school in worship.
Loddington Primary is a family community where everyone is nurtured and truly valued. We strive to ensure that all our children enjoy school in our happy, welcoming environment. Through our engaging curriculum and placing Christian Values at the heart of what we do, we hope to inspire children to become confident and caring individuals who live life in all its fullness.
Here is a small representation of our work from that day.

Ethos Statement
At the heart of the Christian faith is the call to love God and to love our neighbour.
Loddington Church of England Primary School’s ethos is firmly grounded in these Christian values which inform all school activity, while respecting and understanding others’ faith, belief and culture as well as those who do not have a faith or belief.
We strongly believe that we must provide a holistic, respectful and child centred experience that allows each and every child to achieve their full potential.

We aspire for our children to become responsible, confident and creative members of our school community, whereby they flourish – reaching their full potential. Staff have high ambitions for all children, and children thrive from our secure and caring community. As an inclusive school, we work in partnership with our local community, parents, and our local churches – living out our Christian values every day. The solid foundation we set, alongside real-world experiences, prepares our children to become role-model citizens.
Our Aims are to:
-
provide many and varied opportunities for learning, always recognising and developing the abilities, talents and diversity of each individual.
-
celebrate the achievements of each and every child nurturing them to be the best they can be.
-
further develop the school as a unique and diverse community set at the heart of the wider community it serves.
-
to develop the children as responsible citizens who are equipped to meet the challenges of the future in an ever changing multi-cultural society.
-
embed Christian values in everything we do
