Promoting British Values
We agree with the Department for Education’s five-part definition of Fundamental British Values:
- Democracy
- The rule of law
- Individual liberty
- Mutual respect
- Tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs
At Meden want our students to take responsibility in using these core British Values principles throughout everyday school life. The importance of these values in our modern and diverse community is recognised across all curriculum areas. Our personal development curriculum in particular delivers opportunities for students to learn about and reflect upon these British Values.
