"All maintained schools must meet the requirements set out in section 78 of the Education Act 2002 and promote the spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) development of their pupils. Through ensuring pupils’ SMSC development, schools can also demonstrate they are actively promoting fundamental British values".
(Promoting Fundamental British values as part of SMSC in schools, November 2014)
At Bevois Town Primary School, SMSC development not only permeates but informs all aspects of our on-going curriculum design. We are committed to ensuring that our curriculum enables all our children to develop as individuals who appreciate how the diverse society in which they live today has evolved, embrace the benefits and responsibilities of belonging to a global community and recognise how individually and collectively, they may positively shape tomorrow.
At Bevois Town Primary School, we have created a climate for learning rooted in mutual respect and collective responsibility. Our vision and values which lie at the HEART of all that we do, relate directly back to the British Values described and are thus embedded in both our ‘caught’ and taught curriculum.
Honesty, Equality, Achievement, Respect and Responsibility, Teamwork.
