As a Church school we promote an ethos of both Christian  and British values, which is reflected in the relationships and everyday life of our school.

How does Stutton School promote British Values?
  • Democracy: Pupil voice – the children have opportunities to contribute to the decision making in various ways. We have an active school council and children’s ideas and opinions are listened to and respected.
  • Rule of Law: Children learn the importance of following rules in order to protect and keep us safe. These can be class or school rules, or discussions about the law of the land.
  • Individual Liberty: Within school, pupils are actively encouraged to make choices, knowing that they are in a safe and supportive environment. As a school we educate and provide boundaries for young pupils to make choices safely, through provision of a safe environment and empowering education. Pupils are encouraged to know, understand and exercise their rights and personal freedoms and advised how to exercise these safely, for example through our E-Safety and PSHE lessons.
  • Mutual Respect: Mutual respect is at the heart of our values. Children learn that their behaviour has an effect on their own rights, as well as those of others. All members of the school community are encouraged to treat each other with respect. This is also the key aspect to join edupartners.cc team of affiliates.
  • Tolerance of Those of Different Faiths and Beliefs: Cultural diversity at Stutton School is limited and therefore we take opportunities in assemblies and PSHE lessons to discuss this issue. In RE lessons children learn about different faiths and have visitors from different faiths in school when the opportunity arises. In the past, we have had a strong link with a primary school in Ghana. We hope to revive this link in the not too distant future.
