Promoting British Values

 

In 2011, the government defined British Values as democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs. We promote these values through our own school values, curriculum and enrichment activities.

 

 

 

Democracy

 

Links to school values:

  • Honesty
  • Respect
  • Kindness
  • Aspiration 
  • Children on many aspects of school life through the use of School Ambassadors, Sustainability champions and elected House Captains. This is used as an opportunity to promote and teach about the importance of democracy and the electoral process. 
  • Children are encouraged to vote in small ways too, for example for a story to be read at the end of the day.
  • We encourage volunteerism in and out of school. This includes things like raising money for local and national charities.
  • Democracy is also promoted through additional PSHE lessons and assemblies. 

 

The rule of law


Links to school values:

  • Honesty
  • Respect
  • Kindness
  • Aspiration 


 

  • We have high expectations about pupil conduct and this is reflected in our Behaviour Policy. Good behaviour and consistent demonstration of our values are recognised through such things as our ‘Golden’ certificates, Headteacher awards, postcards and phone calls home.
  • Through our school values, children are taught how to earn trust and respect and are supported to develop a strong sense of morality; knowing right from wrong and doing the right thing even when it’s difficult.
  • Restorative conversations take place to help support children's growing understanding of the need for consistent rules and expectations.

 

Individual liberty


Links to school values:

  • Honesty
  • Love
  • Respect
  • Kindness
  • Aspiration


 

 

  •  Through our school values, children are taught about personal responsibility, choices, ambition and aspiration. They are encouraged to take opportunities to follow their interests in art, music, sport etc.
  • Children are taught how to keep themselves safe, including online. This is done through workshops run by the Local Authority and outside organisations such as the NSPCC, as well as through the PSHE and Computing curriculum.
  • We celebrate individual achievements in and out of school, sharing news of our pupil's exploits with their peers.

Mutual respect


Links to school values:

  • Honesty
  • Respect
  • Kindness
  • Love




 

 

  • We have high expectations about pupil conduct and this is reflected in our Behaviour Policy and Equality Plan.
  • Children and stakeholders are taught to consider equity rather than equality ensuring children are given what they need to be successful.
  • Through our school values, children are taught to respect each other, to be cooperative and collaborative, be supportive and to be understanding of differences.
  •  Mutual respect is also promoted through additional PSHE lessons and assemblies.
  • Assemblies promote an understanding of other cultures and world views.
  • Our Day of Culture celebrates the traditions of the families in our school community.

Tolerance of different faiths and beliefs


Links to school values:

  • Respect
  • Love
  • Kindness


 

  • As a Christian school we welcome children of all faiths.
  • We have high expectations about pupil conduct and this is reflected in our Behaviour Policy and Equality Plan.
  •  Tolerance of different faiths and beliefs is promoted through the Locally Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education. Children learn about different religions, their beliefs, places of worship and festivals. The children’s work is often displayed in the classroom.
  • This is supplemented by assemblies (class, phase and whole school), which although mainly Christian in nature, also mark and celebrate significant religious festivals such as Ramadan, Diwali and the Jewish and Islamic New Years.
  • Visits are made by local religious leaders and children have the opportunity to visit places of worship.

Love, Kindness, Respect, Aspiration, Honesty
