British Values…Christian Values!
We are required to actively promote and not undermine ‘British Values.’ The Government has set out its definition of British Values as:
As a church school, we actively promote values, virtues and ethics that shape our pupils’ character and moral perspective, through the teachings of Jesus. We are confident that our continued focus on the Christian values will give our pupils the necessary awareness of what it means to be a good citizen in Britain today and embed in them the building blocks of a future successful and productive life.
Through our curriculum, along with promoting the common good, we are able to make real links between the values of our pupils and the lives of others in their community, country and the world in general. We teach about democracy, civic responsibility, rules and laws, the monarchy, equality, values and virtues, environmental awareness and understanding of other faiths.
