British Values
Promoting British Values
The government defines British Values as democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs. As a school we promote British Values through our own values, curriculum enrichment activities and daily life. Our ethos is one of respect, tolerance and fairness.
