Esher Church School is a faith school for all, not just a church school for Christians. We are fully inclusive of different backgrounds, faiths and abilities and welcome the diversity from across Esher and surrounding areas.
As a Church of England school, we place a strong emphasis on Christian values and encourage the children to consider how they can practise these values to have a positive impact on their own lives and the lives of those around them.
The school enjoys strong links with the local parishes of Esher, Claygate, Weston Green and Hinchley Wood with members of the Clergy and Youth Leaders from both Christ Church Esher and Holy Trinity Claygate leading collective worship assemblies weekly. Our children visit Christ Church throughout the academic year to participate in a variety of services including end of term celebrations, seasonal services and other special events. More recently Holy Trinity have hosted whole year groups for morning events called Christmas Unwrapped and Easter Unwrapped providing the children with opportunities to explore these key Christian celebrations.
We are proud of our strong collaboration with and commitment to our local churches who form an extended part of the Esher Church School community.

Collective worship
The daily act of collective worship is a legal requirement in all schools. In church schools this is Christian worship and reflects the traditions of the Church of England.
Pupils and teachers at Esher Church School value the special dimension that worship brings to church school life.
Collective worship at Esher Church School is an opportunity for the whole school to come together and reflect, express praise, share Christian values, celebrate special times throughout the year and foster respect and unity through spiritual awareness.
