The Vision for Glasgow
Christian School
Glasgow Christian School aims to get back to the Christian roots of education in Scotland and to reclaim the
Godly heritage we have for the current generation.
The School is to be non-denominational, open to children of
all backgrounds and faiths, of both genders.
The vision of the School is to offer excellent Christian education,
preparing children for life in the 21st century and helping them to
recognise and grow in their God-given purpose.
The School affirms positively
that the Truth of the Bible is the necessary foundation and inspiration for
children to develop a healthy and effective life.
The leaders and
teachers of the
school are to have a strong personal
faith in Christ Jesus as the Lord and Saviour. They are to be sincere and
whole hearted in their faith, showing evidence of their faith in their life by
being good examples in Christian faith and living. They are to be members of a
church and able to sign one of the approved Confessions of Faith* with good conscience.
The Curriculum of the school is to be Christian, conforming to the faith as
set out in the agreed confessions. It is to be a comprehensive Curriculum, embracing
the major academic and creative subjects as well as
physical education and implementing the cultural mandate expressing a Christian
world and life view, “bringing every thought captive to Christ.”
The parents and members of the School are expected to
contribute towards the financial needs of the School but the School will also
seek outside sponsors in order to offer assisted places to those families who
cannot afford the school fees.
The vision of the School is to first offer
full time Primary Education and
later on, full time Secondary Education
also. Further aim of the School is to
support home schooling parents in their home schooling efforts.
*These will be the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Baptist
Confession of Faith (1689), 39 Articles of Faith, the Dutch Confession (Three
Forms of Unity) and Savoy Declaration.
