Promotion of British Values at Kepier
The Government set out their definition of British values in the 2011 Prevent Strategy. These
were reinforced in Sept 2014. These new regulations sit alongside the requirements of the
Equalities Act, which also applies to all types of school.
Schools are expected to focus on, and to show how our work with Learners is effective in
embedding fundamental British values.
We agree with, and fully support, the Department for Education’s five-part definition of British values:
• democracy
• the rule of law
• individual liberty
• mutual respect
• tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs
At Kepier, Learners will encounter these principles throughout everyday school life. We
actively promote spiritual, moral, social and cultural values through the curriculum, PSHCE
lessons, coaching, behaviour policies and extra – curricular activities.
The curriculum is mapped in detail across the whole school to ensure we are promoting SMSC (spiritual, moral, social and cultural development).
