British Values
The government set out their definition of British Values in the 2011 Prevent Strategy.
These were reinforced in September 2014 due to events at the time. These regulations sit alongside the requirements of the Equalities Act, which also applies to all types of school (Single Equality Policy).
Schools are expected to focus on, and be able to show, how our work with pupils is effective in embedding fundamental British values.

- Democracy
- The Rule of Law
- Individual Liberty
- Mutual Respect
