As a church school, Collective Worship is very important to us.   At Coleby Church of England Primary School, your child will be used to taking part in collective worship every day.  

Acts of Collective Worship help the children come to terms with the world in which they live and are planned to be:

• Inclusive: something for children and teachers, of all faiths or of none to be able to join in with;
• Inspirational: a time in the day to think about the 'big questions' in our lives; an occasion that supports the school community’s spiritual development, creates an opportunity to gather around and reflect on a common theme and ‘feeds’ their inner being; as well as
• Invitational: in school, children and teachers are invited to pray, think, or reflect, it is the child’s or teachers choice how they respond.

Our Collective Worships are as follows:

Monday:                                  Whole School Collective Worship led by HT/Senior Teacher

Tuesday:                                  Picture News

Wednesday:                           Themed Worship

Thursday:                                Choral Worship

Friday:                                     Praising Worship

Parents have the statutory right under Section 71 of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 to withdraw their children from acts of collective worship at all maintained schools, including faith schools.
