At Carlton, we promote British values in our daily life.
The delivery of the curriculum and beyond, promotes strategies to ensure that the application of these values are made clear to all pupils and that opportunities are provided where they can apply these values.
The list below outlines a sample of how British Values are shared throughout the school. The list is not exhaustive, and represents only some of what we do.
These include the understanding and use of money, high level writing and reading skills, collaborative work in all subjects, discussion and researching of ideas and concepts and gaining a broad and balanced understanding of the society in which they live.
Aspects of study beyond core skills include the historical and geographical context of the United Kingdom, incorporating local and national evolution, as well as international comparisons.
Collective worship/assembly: The sharing of stories, images, events, music and expectations that promotes the values. Carlton’s assemblies are planned to be meaningful to children regardless of knowledge, experience or cognitive maturity.
As a ‘community school’, ‘collective worship’ is non-denominational and recognises that those attending may have a wide range of faiths, or none. It is however an opportunity for all children to develop their understanding and respect of the different faiths. The school also views assembly as a vehicle to explore aspects of the SEAL curriculum –Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning and to reinforce moral issues that underpin a safe and cohesive society.
Should you feel that the school or staff, is not meeting this requirement, you should contact the school office and request to express your concerns with the Head teacher.
