Fundamental British Values

At Highfield Academy our pupils learn about Fundamental British Values, so they  become valuable and fully rounded members of society who treat others with respect and tolerance, regardless of background. Children learn about the five aspects of British Values: Democracy, The rule of law, Individual liberty, Mutual respect and Tolerance for those of different faiths and beliefs.

This  helps pupils to understand the importance of respect and leave school fully prepared for life in modern Britain

How we actively promote  Fundamental British Values.

o We use KAPOW to deliver our PSHE and RSE curriculum, which promotes the Fundamental British Values. They are woven through lesson planning, from Reception to Year 6.

Each week children  also focus on a UNICEF 'Article of the Week,' further developing pupils understanding of the world in which they live and the challenges people face.

Children learn about Fundamental British Values through literature.

Carefully chosen texts allow pupils to  further develop  their understanding through stories and picture books- see document below.
