Collective Worship at Debden Primary Academy
The school aims to preserve and develop its religious character in accordance with the principles of the Church of England. Debden Primary Academy aims to serve its community by providing an education of the highest quality within the context of Christian belief and practice.
Our daily worship is intrinsically linked with our school’s Christian values and focuses heavily on how to live out those values in our daily lives. We celebrate and consider significant events, festivals and faith days in a fully inclusive way. At Debden Primary Academy, collective worship is:
- Invitational, offering everyone the opportunity to engage in the act of worship, whilst allowing the freedom for those of other faiths and none to be present with integrity.
- Inspiring and creative, impacting the whole community and motivating them into action to be courageous advocates
- Inclusive, where all are welcomed, have a voice and are listened to
Collective worship is at the heart of our school life and reflects our vision:
“That they may have life in all its fullness.”
Through our worship, we explore what it means to live well together, celebrate our shared values, and nurture the spiritual growth of every child.
Our six values support and strengthen this vision, helping us all to learn, love, and live fully.
