In the summer term these children will work with some year 5 children to become the next Worship Council. #### Withdrawal of Pupils Parents have a legal right to withdraw their children from Collective Worship either partly or wholly. However, we encourage parents to discuss their request which we will deal with sensitively. If the parent does not want to discuss it or still feels they wish to withdraw their child, the request should be made in writing to the head teacher. The school will provide an alternative activity and supervision for the child. ### Worship Documents Collective Worship Policy 319 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-bartholomew-s-cofe-primary-school/files/documents/policies/Collective_Worship_Policy.pdf) Quick Guide 1.62 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-bartholomew-s-cofe-primary-school/files/documents/Quick-Guides/Quick-Guide-Collective_Worship_2026.pdf) ### Worship Areas ![](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/images/Worship1.jpg) Each class has a worship area, in these, classes display the current theme and bible quotes. They also include reflections and thoughts from the class worship sessions. In addition there is the class bible and candles to support quiet reflection. ![](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/images/IMG_1445.JPG) We also have a school collective worship display that helps show all visitors our current theme and focus. ## Recording Collective Worship Each half term we focus on a theme for our worship. We collect work, thoughts and reflections from each class to make our floor book or the school worship display in the corridor. This is kept in our main entrance for parents and visitors to look at. The worship council also share it with the children. ![](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/images/Worship2(1).jpg) ![](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/images/Worship3(1).jpg) ![](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/images/IMG_1446.JPG) ### Related News ![Image of Easter Service at St Bartholomew's Church](https://files.schudio.com/st-bartholomew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x440c/gallery/easter-service-at-st-bartholomew-s-church/IMG_1282.jpg) 2 April 2026 ### [Easter Service at St Bartholomew's Church](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/news/2026-04-02-easter-service-at-st-bartholomew-s-church) ![Image of Christmas Carol Service](https://files.schudio.com/st-bartholomew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x440c/news/Church(1).jpg) 16 December 2025 ### [Christmas Carol Service](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/news/2025-12-16-christmas-carol-service-1) [View All News](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/news/tag/worship) ### Related Blog Posts [![Image of KS2 - Worship - The Generous Widow](https://files.schudio.com/st-bartholomew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x440c/gallery/ks2-worship-the-generous-widow/IMG_1442_20261009091435115.jpg)](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/blog/2026-09-25-08-49-ks2-worship-the-generous-widow) 25 September 2026 #### [KS2 - Worship - The Generous Widow](https://www.st-bartholomews.leeds.sch.uk/blog/2026-09-25-08-49-ks2-worship-the-generous-widow) The Worship Council led the collective worship today.
