At Ladybrook Primary School, we are committed to promoting the fundamental British Values that help our children become respectful, tolerant, and active citizens. These values are woven throughout our curriculum, assemblies, and daily school life, preparing children to contribute positively to modern Britain.
The five British Values we promote are: Democracy, The Rule of Law, Individual Liberty, Mutual Respect, and Tolerance of Different Faiths and Beliefs.
We help children understand how democracy works and why their voice matters. We teach them that everyone should have a say and that decisions should be made fairly.
At Ladybrook, we promote democracy through:
Children learn that rules and laws exist to keep everyone safe and happy. We help them understand the difference between right and wrong, and that there are consequences for our actions.
At Ladybrook, we promote the rule of law through:
We encourage children to make safe, positive choices and to develop their own interests and talents. They learn that they have the freedom to have their own views and pursue their own goals.
At Ladybrook, we promote individual liberty through:
We teach children to treat everyone with kindness and consideration. At Ladybrook, we celebrate what makes each person special and help children understand that everyone deserves respect, regardless of their differences.
At Ladybrook, we promote mutual respect through:
Children learn about different religions, cultures, and traditions. We help them understand and respect that people have different beliefs and backgrounds, and that this diversity makes our community richer.
At Ladybrook, we promote tolerance through:
These values are not just taught in isolation—they are part of everything we do at Ladybrook Primary School. They align with good parenting and the values many families already hold dear. By working together, we can help our children grow into responsible, caring, and respectful members of society.
