Personal Development-British Values

In line with the with the Department for Education’s five-part definition, we promote the following British values at Wood Lane Primary School;

  • democracy
  • the rule of law
  • individual liberty
  • mutual respect
  • tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs

Every child at Wood Lane Primary School matters to us. Through our emphasis on the British Values, we ensure that all children, regardless of background/faith/ethnicity, leave our school with the necessary skills to be a successful, empathetic, morally secure person who contributes positively to society.

Our comprehensive mapping of British Values through our curriculum, identifies where we explicitly teach British Values. 

We implicitly teach it through:

Democratically voting throughout the school year

Consulting our children on policy and implementation

Our enhanced curriculum offer

Cultural days, where we experience what it is like to be a part of an unfamiliar culture.
