British values are fundamental to British society and promoting cohesion and integration. The promotion of these values also seen helps us to protect children from extremist ideologies and to help prepare them for life in modern Britain.

The fundamental British values are:

Democracy: making decisions together, for example giving opportunities to develop enquiring minds in an atmosphere where questions are valued.

Rule of law: understanding rules matter as in Personal Social and Emotional development for example collaborating with children to create rules and codes of behaviour.

Individual liberty: freedom for all, for example reflecting on their differences and understanding we are free to have different opinions.

Mutual respect and tolerance: treat others as you want to be treated, for example sharing and respecting others’ opinions.

At Oldmixon Primary School, learning about British values is an integral part of school life.
