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.
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
We aim to provide children with a broad curriculum, which encompasses the British Values:
- Pupil Parliament campaigns and elections
- Ballot Day and Polling Station experience
- Visits from Outreach Officers
- 360-degree virtual tour of Parliament
- Learn with the House of Lords
- Visits from local MP and other parliamentary candidates
- Loan Box Debates
- Learning about careers within parliament, law and legal sectors, community services
- Volunteering opportunities and community links
- Weekly RE and PSHE lessons, supported by whole school and key stage assemblies
