From the Arundel CofE Primary School
At Arundel Church of England Primary School, we take pride in the nurturing and care we give the kids entrusted to us. We develop children's personal character through such things as 'The ACE Way', which includes making good choices (choices and consequences) and permeates all subjects, wider school activities, and our general school ethos and Vision statement. We aid ACE pupils in learning to know the good, love the good and do the good, and we believe that the ultimate aim is to allow all children to flourish and help them in their journey to become effective contributors to society, successful learners and responsible citizens. Acquisition and development of intellectual, moral, and civic virtues are necessary for human wellbeing.
