The basic British principles of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and respect for people of all religions and beliefs must be promoted in all schools, according to the DfE, which has lately reaffirmed the need for doing so.
In the Prevent Strategy from 2011, the Government defined British values, and these values have been reaffirmed this year (2014).
These ideals are routinely reemphasized at Callands in the methods listed below.
The rights attached to the class regulations are decided upon by the students each year.
Each youngster makes a contribution to the charter's creation.
Our school has a council that meets frequently to talk about concerns brought up in class council sessions.
Laws are continually emphasised throughout the regular school day, as well as when dealing with behaviour and during school assemblies, whether they be those that govern the class, the school, or the country.
With the knowledge that they are in a secure and encouraging atmosphere at school, students are actively encouraged to make decisions.
We educate young students and set limits for them to make decisions securely as a school by offering a secure setting and powerful instruction.
Students are encouraged to be aware of, comprehend, and exercise their rights and liberties, as well as given instructions on how to do so safely, for instance through our E-Safety and PSHE lectures.
Our principles are based on respect for one another.
Everyone in the school community is respectful of one another.
Callands places a lot of focus on teaching kids about diversity.
To improve instruction in classes and throughout the school, people of all faiths are urged to share their knowledge.
