HOPE is the driving force of Ashbrow School.
We wish for our kids to always strive to be "the best they can be" and succeed in life.
These motivators are evident in the day-to-day operations of the school, in everything we do, say, and offer to our kids.
We use Guy Claxton's four "Rs" to help us identify the qualities that our children must possess in order to be able to grow in this fashion.
These, as well as resourcefulness, reciprocity, resilience, and reflectiveness, are essential components of our curriculum.
The DfE emphasised the necessity of "creating and enforcing a clear and rigorous requirement on all schools to teach the basic British principles of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect and tolerance of individuals with different faiths and views."
We discussed and thought about what British values meant to us at Ashbrow.
Respect and tolerance are other school principles that are regularly and age-appropriately reinforced.
At Ashbrow School, we try to foster this crucial process because we are aware that it starts at a very young age.
There are numerous ways for kids to have their voices heard.
Every day, staff members make sure that the democratic process is modelled.
Children in Ashbrow receive clear instruction on how to express their ideas, think about the larger good, and be sensitive to the needs and viewpoints of others.
All kids are growing their ability to make decisions as part of their education, learning to do so responsibly and with knowledge.
Our everyday practise constantly emphasises the value of laws, whether they are those that regulate the classroom, the school, or the nation.
With the knowledge that they are in a secure and encouraging atmosphere at school, students are actively encouraged to make decisions.
We teach and set limits for our young students to make decisions securely as a school by offering a secure setting and empowering instruction.
Students are urged to be aware of, comprehend, and exercise their personal freedoms.
Through our assemblies, e-Safety lessons, and PSHE classes, for example, they are given advice on how to use them responsibly and with concern for and respect for others.
Students are given the ability to make decisions, such as joining one of our extracurricular clubs.
We provide our kids the freedom to make responsible decisions.
One of our school's core values is respect.
The impact of their actions on both their own and other people's rights is something that children learn.
Everyone associated with the school is expected to respect one another.
We engage the kids in current events conversation so they can understand the world around them.
Ashbrow School sits in an area of cultural diversity, and we also place an emphasis on promoting diversity with the children.

We understand that it is important to understand the different faiths of the world.
