LINKS BETWEEN THE SCHOOL AND PARISH

As a Church of England school, Ropley CE Primary School has a distinctive Christian character which gives the whole school community an insight into the way in which matters of faith (and the Christian faith as practised in the Church of England in particular) can inform all aspects of personal development and social interaction.  The school's Christian character is based on core Christian values, the daily Collective Worship held in the school, and the teaching of Religious Education.

The school values its close relationship with the parish of Ropley. The Vicar is Reverend Amber Beresford who lives in the village. She is closely involved with the life of the school and leads Collective Worship weekly as well as being a school Governor.  

​​Ropley CE Primary School has long been associated with St Peter's Church and we are thrilled that we can now regularly visit the church for worship. Sadly, on the morning of Thursday 19th June 2014, the 800 year old St Peter’s Church was almost completely destroyed in a catastrophic fire, but following a determined and focused fundraising effort by the community, our beautiful church has been fully restored.

Our core Christian values are Love, Courage and Community. These values are woven into our everyday learning and life at Ropley CE Primary. 

Our School is a Church School (Voluntary Controlled) and we have regular inspections of our 'distinctiveness and effectiveness' as a Church school.
