British Values Statement

The Department for Education’s five part definition of British Values includes the promotion of: · 

  • Democracy;

  • The rule of law;

  • Individual liberty;

  • Mutual respect; and

  • Tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs. Craven PRS fully supports and advocates the expectation that all schools will support and educate students on their understanding and implementation of these principles

  • Pupil voice activities are used consistently across the school, including as an element of school reviews, to provide them with the opportunity to reflect on their learning and wider experiences at the PRS
  • Craven PRS has a culture where its young people develop in a safe environment where they are encouraged to have choices and freedom. Lessons allow pupils to reflect on their learning and make choices about the next steps in that learning and the challenges they wish to undertake
  • We aim to foster an environment of mutual respect among all the members of our school community, and respect for the rights of others and their right to learn and express their opinions is central to what we do
  • We seek to deliver a broad and balanced curriculum in which all major religions are studied to allow for the development of understanding, tolerance and respect. This helps pupils to understand their place within our academy community, the local and national community, and also their place in the world
  • We will promote our ethos and core values in the school to ensure that all pupils have an understanding of the importance of belonging, acceptance and respect.
