British Values

Preparing Children for Life in Modern Britain

At Knowsley Village Primary School we take very seriously our responsibility to prepare children for life in modern Britain. We ensure that the fundamental British Values are introduced and discussed and are an integral part of our ethos. Curriculum areas provide a vehicle for furthering understanding of these concepts and in particular the RE and PSHE and citizenship curriculum . The weekly assemblies provide excellent opportunities to deepen and develop understanding. Children embrace these concepts with enthusiasm and demonstrate a good understanding of their application to their own lives inside and outside of school. The school makes considerable efforts to ensure children have exposure to a wide range of experiences within and beyond their local community. Our strong rooted values of Respect for All gives the children an excellent platform for embracing these values.
