God loves people and knows that people need people. He created us to live in community, giving and receiving support, which leads to generosity and gratitude. That is why it is so important to us to work with, contribute to and be an active part of our local communities. “We are better together than we are alone.” Romans 12:4–5 **Working Together** Building strong partnerships with families, parishes and organisations across our communities. **Supporting Others** Encouraging generosity, service and opportunities for our pupils to make a positive difference. **Living Sustainably** Helping our schools and communities care for our common home and make more sustainable choices. ### LiveSimply Award ![LiveSimply Award](https://bccet.org.uk/images/94debd0a55340237daa7f465d96e123d.png) As part of our pledge for our Trust to be more sustainable, we are delighted that all our schools are working towards the LiveSimply Award.
