At Christ the King Catholic Primary School, we teach our children that every person and every job has value. Through the Catholic Social Teaching principle of Dignity of Workers, children learn that all workers should be treated with fairness, respect and dignity, whatever their role.

As Pope Francis reminds us:

"Work is fundamental to the dignity of a person."

Across the Curriculum:

Throughout the school, pupils learn about the important contributions people make through their work, from those who care for us in Early Years to professionals who share their experiences during our 'When I Grow Up' Day. Through initiatives such as Fairtrade Fortnight, children explore why workers should receive fair pay and safe working conditions, while texts such as Hidden Figures help them understand the importance of equality and justice in the workplace.

Inspired by our mission, "To live together in harmony, to grow and develop in Christ, and to reflect God's love in all that we do," we encourage our children to value the gifts and contributions of others and to treat everyone with kindness, gratitude and respect.
