In 2011, the Government defined British Values as democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs.
We promote these values through our own school values, our varied curriculum and through enrichment activities.
At Crondall Primary School we work together as a community to provide a happy, secure and stimulating environment where children are motivated to learn, are valued as individuals and encouraged to achieve their full potential.
This is used as an opportunity to promote and teach democracy and the electoral process.
Volunteering in schools is encouraged.
UN CRC Article 19: Governments should ensure that children are properly cared for, and protect them from violence, abuse and neglect by their parents, or anyone else who looks after them.
Through our Collective Worship, Circle Time and PSHE, children are taught how to earn trust and respect and are supported to develop a strong sense of morality; knowing right from wrong and doing the right thing even when its difficult.
UN CRC Article 2: The Convention applies to everyone whatever their race, religion, abilities, whatever they think or say and whatever type of family they come from.
UN CRC Article 30: Children have a right to learn and use the language and customs of their families, whether these are shared by the majority of people in the country or not.
Mutual Respect is also promoted through additional PSHE lessons and Collective Worship.
We believe in ourselves.
UN CRC Article 14: Children have the right to think and believe what they want, and to practice their religion, as long as they are not stopping other people from enjoying their rights.
Parents should guide their children on these matters.
Tolerance of different faiths and beliefs is promoted through the Hampshire County Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education Living Difference.
Children learn about different religions, their beliefs, places of worship and festivals.
The childrens work on this subject or whole school learning in Collective Worship is often displayed in the classrooms or around the school.
This is supplemented by Collective Worship, which also marks and celebrates significant religious festivals such as Chinese New Year and Diwali.
The vicar of the Local Parish delivers Collective Worship weekly, and we work closely with the Church e.g. Harvest Festival, Christmas and Easter Services.
