The government state that schools should 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. At Snape Wood Primary and Nursery School, we take very seriously our responsibility to prepare children for life in modern Britain, and promotes the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect for and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs and for those without faith. We ensure that the fundamental British Values are introduced, discussed and lived out through the ethos and work of the school. Our school reflects British values in all that it does. We encourage our children to be creative, unique, open-minded and independent individuals, respectful of themselves and of others in our school, our local community and the wider world. 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. At Snape Wood Primary, we aim to ensure that our PRIDE values align closely with British values and through these our pupils will become productive citizens of modern Britain. These values are threaded throughout school life and evident in pupils’ behaviour in all areas. All curriculum areas provide a vehicle for furthering understanding of these concepts and in particular, our PSHE lessons which follow the SCARF scheme of work. The Early Years Curriculum includes Personal, Social and Emotional Development and Understanding the World which help children to respect and value all people and provide opportunities to deepen and develop understanding. Children at Snape Wood, embrace these concepts with enthusiasm and demonstrate a good understanding of how to apply to their own lives.
