British Values
Our government believes that ‘British society is founded on fundamental values and principles, which all those living in the UK should respect and support. These values are reflected in the responsibilities, rights and privileges of being a British citizen or permanent resident of the UK. They are based on history and traditions and are protected by law, customs and expectations. There is no place in British society for extremism or intolerance.’ These British Values link greatly to our own Dobcroft values and are therefore integrated into our whole school teaching and learning. Below you are able to see how our own values relate directly to the British values of: democracy, rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs.
