From the Cantell School
The leadership group and the entire staff at Cantell completely support the need to instil these principles in pupils and provide an example for doing so, ensuring that they not only achieve academic success but also grow into engaged citizens who are well-suited for life in contemporary Britain.
Students and staff at Cantell School come into contact with the five values on a daily basis in every element of school life.
Our school, which takes pride in its incredibly diverse population and the strength that this gives, is deeply ingrained with values like "mutual respect" and "tolerance of individuals of various religions and views."
Our goal is for pupils to grasp the significance of rules and laws in protecting people and institutions in Britain. Our students will meet rules and laws throughout their life.
Observing laws and following the regulations is regularly emphasised in lessons, tutoring sessions, and assemblies.
Additionally, laws are taught to students along with how the British legal system operates and how laws have changed over time in Britain.
We place a high priority on the individual and their right to make their own decisions.
Since they are in a secure atmosphere with support, students are actively encouraged to engage in this.
E-safety education and a thorough personal, social, and health curriculum are provided to students in order to empower them to make wise decisions.
The freedom to select and hold alternative beliefs is consistently emphasised in religious education.
In all facets of school life, respect is encouraged and required.
Students are treated equally in every lesson, and it is understood that respectful listening to one another's opinions is expected.
In English, Design Technology, Music, Art, and Humanities, as well as during enrichment days like the recent Year 7 China Day and themed assemblies, such as those on anti-bullying or deaf awareness, the study of many cultures and lifestyles fosters mutual tolerance.
There are numerous instances of how debate and discussion of frequently complex and divisive matters can help students grow in their respect for opposing points of view.
We offer a broad and balanced RE curriculum that covers a variety of faiths, beliefs, and cultures because we think that tolerance comes from knowledge and understanding.
In the News' is another significant component of the tutoring period, which tries to promote students' tolerance by enhancing their knowledge of international affairs.
The Citizenship Department hosts enrichment days like "Combating Extremism" and "Diversity and Equality," and all lectures include specific instruction on the significance of opposing prejudice and discrimination.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch with Mr. Harry Kutty, the school's headteacher, if you have any questions regarding anything mentioned here.
