We are very proud of our work on British Values within school. In learning about these, we invite the children to see the connections between our school Christian Values of Wisdom, Compassion and Endurance and those of tolerance, democracy, liberty, respect, responsibility and the rule of law.
Votes for Schools is a weekly current affairs platform, which supports discussions on challenging topical issues and empowers our pupils to have their voices heard by voting and commenting on a key question relating to current political and social issues. Through weekly debating and voting, our pupils are learning about the world around them and becoming prepared for participating in our democratic processes, as they learn about themselves, others and the world around them.
Each week the children are presented with a question and the vote of Yes/No is taken in each class. This information is then collated and recorded on the Votes For Schools website. The results show us what our children’s views are and how they compare to local and national views of other children. We then discuss the results of the votes in our Friday worship.
