We are part of the Beckington and Mells Church School Federation.

Our vision is to create a safe, caring and aspirational learning community, inspired by our Christian values, where we thrive through challenge, fun, friendship and belonging, to be the best we can be.

Our two schools, Beckington Church of England First School and Mells Church of England First School, federated in September 2019.

Our schools are based on two separate sites but share common values. Both are small, nurturing church schools for children aged four through to age nine. We value learning through play and having fun in a natural environment.

We encourage our children to question, explore, research and enjoy learning and we have three simple school rules; kind hands, kind feet, kind words.

Our Vision

To create a safe, caring and aspirational learning community, inspired by our Christian values, where we thrive through challenge, fun, friendship and belonging, to be the best we can be.

This is underpinned by the Parable of the Lost Sheep:

Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Does he not leave the ninety-nine sheep and go find the one sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he is so excited he carries the sheep all the way home. Then he phones all his friends and neighbours and has a party to celebrate the sheep that was found.

Our Values

We have six core values and we focus on one each term. They are:

• Respect
• Courage
• Service and Giving
• Honesty and Truthfulness
• Empathy and Compassion
• Love and Wisdom
