The Khalsa School is a Sikh Faith school established to provide a holistic education based on the key principles of ‘Sikhi’ and Sikh values. Faith is not just a matter of practicing rituals and ceremonies but a way of life, a way to live and engage with individuals in society. Khalsa Primary School is a Sikh Faith school and is based on the tenets of Sikhism, a religion based on the individual as part of a whole, the Sikh community, the wider community and the global community.
In order to deliver spiritual and moral education, the school will provide a structure of accountability of teaching and support to deliver Sikh studies as an integral part of the overall curriculum on par with the equality and importance of all other curriculum areas.
We believe that faith is not simply the subject matter of particular lessons, but forms the foundation of all that we do and the horizon of all that takes place in a school environment. Each member of the school community will have a responsibility to live in a way that upholds Sikh values and beliefs so that the faith permeates all aspects of our school life.
The primary aim is to educate pupils as responsible and compassionate global citizens with the skills and knowledge to question and understand the work around them and to respect the beliefs, cultures and opinions of others.
