Understand, accept, respect and celebrate diversity as shown by their tolerance and attitudes

Mutual respect is at the heart of our values. Children learn that their behaviours have an effect on their own rights and those of others. All members of the school community treat each other with respect. 

We actively promote diversity through our celebrations of different faiths and cultures.

Religious Education lessons and PSHE lessons reinforce messages of tolerance and respect for others. Members of different faiths and religions are encouraged to share their knowledge to enhance learning within classes and the school.

The children visit places of worship that are important to different faiths. Throughout school life the children are encouraged to discuss differences between people such as their faith, ethnicity, disability, gender or sexuality. They also discuss differences in family life such as looked after children or young carers. 

Assemblies throughout the year celebrate and make aware all the religious festivals occurring.
