PSHCE YEAR 6

 

What are British Values?

Fundamental British Values underpin what it is to be a citizen in a modern and diverse Great Britain valuing our community and celebrating diversity of the UK. These values are Democracy, Rule of Law, Respect and Tolerance, Individual Liberty.

Why are the 5 British Values important?
We see British Values as underpinning what it is to be a citizen in a modern and diverse Britain. They allow us to create environments free from discrimination, intolerance and hate. They help us to challenge prejudice and stereotyping, whilst strengthening relationships within the community.
As part of our PSHCE/JIGSAW Lesson Year 6 discussed how
these values are clearly evident throughout our school.
Then the children were given a scenario of an event that could happen…
Once the children had read the the news report  they took on the roles of the adults who were directly involved.
These included: a police officer, a fireman, the headmaster of the school, the class teacher and the parents of some of the children involved.
They had to  listen carefully to the views and opinions of  all members of the group.The right to free speech – individual liberty . It was necessary to show respect and tolerance eventhough their views and opinions differed greatly. 
They had to abide by the rule of law when it came to important decision making…
Finally, as part of tte democratic process , they had  to decide what steps needed to be taken so that every member of the group was happy with the final outcome .
