Promoting Fundamental British Values

In accordance with The Department for Education we aim to actively promote British values in schools to ensure young people leave school prepared for life in modern Britain. Pupils are encouraged to regard people of all faiths, races and cultures with respect and tolerance and understand that while different people may hold different views about what is ‘right’ and ‘wrong’, all people living in England are subject to its law.

The Key Values are:

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

How do we promote these values at Long Crendon School?

The British Values link to our school values which are promoted through all we do in school. 

We hold elections in school to vote for positions of responsibility, for example, house captains. We have school council to allow pupils a chance to voice opinion freely and have a voice.

Long Crendon School does not affiliate with any one religion and we promote tolerance of all faiths and beliefs. We will not tolerate any form of discrimination and educate to eliminate any form of intolerance and inequality. Respect is key across the school and we expect the school community, including all stakeholders, to behave in a way which promotes British Values.
