St Botolph's C of E Primary School
New day...endless possibilities
St Botolph’s is a wonderful school. All of the teachers and TA’s that my children have had have been highly supportive and professional. From the moment my children enter school campus they are greeted with a smile.
I loved this school from the moment I walked in and my son does too. Cannot recommend it enough.
Our son is so happy to go to school every day! It is such a relief and comfort to know he is happy and settled in a wonderful environment with kind and caring staff members. Our son has come on leaps and bounds and it’s lovely to see the updates through the app of all the different activities he does every day. We can’t thank the staff enough for the brilliant first year he’s had.
British Values
British Values underpin what it is to be a citizen in a modern and diverse Great Britain, valuing our community and celebrating diversity of the UK.
The Department for Education defines British Values as follows:
-
Democracy - Respect for democracy and support or participation in the democratic process
-
The Rule of Law - Respect for the basis on which the law is made and applies in England
-
Mutual Respect Support for equality of opportunity for all
-
Individual Liberty - Support and respect for the liberties of all within the law
-
Tolerance - Respect for and tolerance of different faiths and religious and other beliefs
Our school reflects British values in all that we do. We aim to educate and nurture our children so that they can grow into safe, caring, democratic, responsible and tolerant adults who make a positive difference to British society and to the world.
The values are taught explicitly in whole school assemblies alongside our PSHE programme of study and through our 'Picture news' class assemblies. The themes and current affairs of Picture News gives our pupils opportunities to listen, absorb, reflect and share opinions on our British Values.
We also have a PSHE programme of study, which supports our pupils in learning about the key values from Reception to Year 6. This teaching forms part of the core curriculum for each year group.
