heath park

The government states that there are 5 elements to British Values: Democracy The rule of law Individual liberty Mutual respect Tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs Heath Park’s motto of ‘Every Pupil, Always In Focus’ actively promotes these values and the life of the school demonstrates the strength of our community. Democracy The principles of democracy, of having a voice and a say in how institutions are run, are explored within the curriculum and across the school. From this we aim to foster an appreciation of the democratic process and allow students to actively engage in decision making so that they are ready to do this in the wider society when the time comes. Citizenship, PSHE and History in particular consider the nature of democracy and in doing so explain alternative systems, their strengths and weaknesses, and the development of democracy today, for example in proportional representation. Within lessons too, we look to provide opportunities for students to make decisions about their learning based on their prior learning and need, identifying an outcome and working towards it in a way which works for them.
