At Tudor Grange Primary Academy Haselor, we value the diversity of the backgrounds of all pupils, families and the wider school community and strongly believe in upholding British Values through all aspects of our school provision.

The DofE states that there is a need:

“To create and enforce a clear and rigorous expectation on all schools to promote the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs”. 

Our school reflects British Values in all that we do. We aim to nurture our children on their journey through life, so they can grow into safe, caring, democratic, responsible and tolerant adults who make a positive difference to British society and to the wider world.

What is meant by British Values?

Learning about British values forms a key part of children’s spiritual, moral, cultural and social education. The five British Values that the Government has identified for schools to focus on are:

  • Democracy
  • The Rule of Law
  • Individual Liberty
  • Mutual Respect and Tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs
  • Developing personal and social responsibility
  • Respect for British Institutions

How should we help our children prepare for adult life as citizens of Britain? 

  • Develop their self-confidence and self-esteem.
  • Develop their understanding of right and wrong, and their respect for the law.
  • Encourage them to take responsibility for their behaviour.
  • Encourage involvement in the community and wider society.
  • Encourage respect for the public services and institutions of Britain.
  • Promote tolerance of and respect for all cultures and faiths.
  • Encourage participation in the democratic process.
