At Pinfold Street we help our children become kind, confident and responsible members of our community. Alongside our R.E.S.P.E.C.T. values, we teach and model the five British values so pupils learn how to take part in school life and make a positive contribution to wider society.

​

What this looks like for our children:

​

• Democracy — pupils have a voice: through our school council, class discussions and votes they learn how to listen, influence decisions and take responsibility.

• Rule of law — we teach why rules matter and how they keep everyone safe; pupils practise following rules and understand the consequences of their choices through restorative conversations.

• Individual liberty — children are encouraged to be curious and make safe, independent choices in their learning and play, while staff support them to manage risks responsibly.

• Mutual respect — respect for others is central to everything we do. We teach pupils to value different views and to treat everyone with kindness.

• Tolerance — through our curriculum, assemblies and day-to-day school life pupils learn about different cultures, beliefs and backgrounds so they grow up open-minded and considerate.

​

We bring these values to life every day — in lessons, extracurricular activities, the school farm and through opportunities to take on responsibilities. Together with our R.E.S.P.E.C.T. values, they help us equip our children with the skills and attitudes they need to be “Prepared for Life.”
