British Values

Promoting Fundamental British Values.

In accordance with The Department for Education we aim to actively promote British values in schools to ensure young people leave school prepared for life in modern Britain. We are a school for all and promote the key British Values.

Pupils are encouraged to regard people of all faiths, races and cultures with respect and tolerance and understand that while different people may hold different views about what is ‘right’ and ‘wrong’, all people living in England are subject to its law.

The Key Values are:

•    democracy
•    rule of law
•    individual liberty
•    mutual respect
•    tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs 

Democracy:

Children are involved in voting e.g. for activities, school council members, ECO Council members.

Children meet in a variety of groups such as the School Council, ECO Council, Worship Committee and Road Safety Team which helps our children to learn about Democratic Processes.

Rule of Law:

We have a whole school behaviour policy and procedures for all to understand and follow. 

Staff keep records of behavioural incidents which are shared with the SLT (Senior Leadership Team) and all stakeholders.

Individual Liberty:

Children are encouraged to make choices within a safe and supportive environment.

Children learn about boundaries and how to make safe choices.

Children are given the choice throughout the day e.g. Playtime.

Mutual Respect:

Our whole school value in Autumn 1 is Respect.

Lessons are planned to include mutual respect e.g. PHSE and Circle Time.

Lessons promote fairness and equality (e.g PE).

Children follow school rules which include mutual respect.

Tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs:

We respect the cultures and beliefs of others.

We enjoy learning about different faiths and cultures from around the world.
