Promoting British Values at Hanley St Luke’s

At Hanley St Luke’s, we are committed to developing and promoting British Values throughout our school and curriculum. As Lord Nash stated,

“We want every school to promote the basic British Values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect and tolerance for those of different faiths and beliefs.”

Our aim is to ensure that every child grows into a valuable, well-rounded member of society who respects others and is fully prepared for life in modern Britain.

Our focus on British Values includes:

• The Rule of Law – Understanding the importance of rules and laws in society

• Democracy – Encouraging children to have a voice and participate in decision-making

• Individual Liberty – Supporting personal freedom and choice within a safe environment

• Mutual Respect – Fostering respect for others and their viewpoints

• Tolerance of Different Faiths and Beliefs – Celebrating diversity and promoting understanding

Through this, we nurture responsible, respectful, and thoughtful individuals ready to contribute positively to their communities.
