At Carlton Primary School we take opportunities to actively promote British Values, defined by the government as the following: Tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs Actively promoting also means challenging pupils, staff or parents expressing opinions contrary to fundamental British Values.
Linking to the work of UNICEF Rights Respecting Schools, values of tolerance and respect permeate all areas of school life. We aim to create a climate within which pupils feel safe and secure and which facilitates the fulfilment of potential.
Pupil Voice plays an integral part in driving the school forward and making the right choices at different levels is seen as the foundation upon which this can be achieved. Below are just some aspects of school life that enable children to get a sense of these fundamentals as they move on through their time at school.
Children have many opportunities for their views to be heard. Throughout the year various Pupil Voice interviews take place to gain children's insight and views of their learning. All children are actively encouraged to participate in class discussion and in their learning. We have a number of pupil forums, including our School Council and Pupil Parliament.
