Fundamental British Values: Prevent Strategy Ideas for Teachers
The Prevent Strategy places a mandatory duty on education professionals to promote fundamental British values.
This guide explains what these values mean and offers ways to incorporate them into everyday life through lessons and special events.
What are the Fundamental British Values?
“Fundamental British values” are a set of social attitudes thought to maintain social cohesion and equality. These values are:
- The rule of law.
- Individual liberty.
- Mutual respect for, and tolerance of, those with different faiths and beliefs.
![british values homework ideas A teacher discussing British values with students](https://www.highspeedtraining.co.uk/hub/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Teaching-Fundamental-British-Values.jpg)
British Values Explained
Democracy describes our national electoral system and the skills needed to participate in it successfully. Democracy relies on listening to the needs of everyone and adapting a decision until the vast majority agree. The democratic process requires rigorous thinking, perspective-taking, patience, and understanding.
Individual liberty is the right of British citizens to make choices regarding the elements of their life that are outside of government control. This refers to freedom of speech and the right to make choices about our education, food, beliefs, opinions, work, family, etc.
The rule of law refers to creating an attitude of accountability and respect towards the laws and rules of institutions and nation-states.
Mutual respect and tolerance is an attitude that recognises and respects the individual liberty of others – even if their choices, lifestyle, and beliefs are ones you don’t share.
As well as promoting these values to students, the conduct of all school staff should reflect them. Teachers can be issued with a Misconduct Order where there is evidence that their behaviour undermines British values or promotes political or religious extremism.
![british values homework ideas](https://www.highspeedtraining.co.uk/hub/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Team-handshake-1.jpg)
How Can I Embed British Values in Lessons?
Schools should have a clear strategy for promoting these values, in their work, as well as methods of showing how this strategy has been effective (e.g. through lesson plans or pupil voice).
Some subjects, such as PSHE, health and relationships education, history, citizenship, and religious education, offer quite explicit subject links. The statutory programmes of study across all key stages, for these subjects include learning outcomes relating to understanding stereotyping, promoting tolerance, respecting differences, and understanding the role and workings of democracy in Britain.
However, opportunities should also be found for embedding British values in lessons within subject with less explicit links – for example, through the texts that are chosen to be studied in English, or in discussions related to the works and artists studied in art and design.
The following are some ideas to further promote British values within school. We have split these up into age ranges, although most strategies can be adapted to suit different age groups.
![british values homework ideas](https://www.highspeedtraining.co.uk/hub/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/A-teacher-working-with-primary-aged-pupils.jpg)
Teaching British Values in Early Years
Early years settings are well placed to begin to establish the fundamental British values, and they are embedding in many of the routines and learning experiences children will encounter.
Examples of ways to foster this include:
Incorporate Choice
By providing child-initiated learning experiences, where children are given opportunities to decide on the activities they wish to pursue, you can help to foster the concept of individual liberty, whilst providing a framework of rules which nurture tolerance and respect. For example, a child may need to wait for an activity to become free if another child has chosen before them.
You can also begin to develop an understanding of democracy by offering choice at a group or class level. This can be something as simple as offering two stories to be read aloud and asking for a show of hands to make the decision. Children will experience having a vote that counts, contributing to a decision, and also abiding by group choices that may or may not reflect your personal wishes.
Reflect children’s individual interests
Anyone who has worked with young children has witnessed the power of show and tell. Children enjoy sharing their interests and news with their peers. Viewed from a perspective of British values, this simple forum for sharing offers both a reinforcement of their individual liberty, showing that their interests and ideas are valued, and promotes ideas of difference and tolerance as they learn about the things that are important to their peers.
Learning experiences within the early years should reflect and build upon the interests of the children, providing them with stimuli to encourage questions and engagement.
Establish clear and consistent rules
By establishing clear and consistent rules for behaviour, you are able to reinforce the importance of rules, alongside the values of tolerance and respect. These should be expressed in child-friendly terms which are easily understood – for example ‘kind words’ might be enough to remind children that we do not call people names or try to hurt their feelings with our words.
![british values homework ideas](https://www.highspeedtraining.co.uk/hub/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/children-voting.jpg)
Teaching British Values in Primary Schools
School Councils
Most schools recognise the importance of including pupil voice in their decision-making process. School councils allow children to put themselves forward for a position of responsibility. Representatives are usually voted for by their peers to represent them (often one or two councillors per class), in order to put their ideas, questions, and sometimes concerns, to a larger meeting of the school council.
Representatives usually hold the position for a set period of time (e.g. a term) and then other children have a chance to put themselves forward.
As children get older, they could be encouraged to put forward a more detailed pitch for why they think they should hold the position and what they would want to do for their peers, as their representative.
This process works for all school-age children and gives them a chance to be involved in a democratic process on many levels – as voters, representatives, and constituents.
Mock Elections
Sometimes schools take the opportunity to mirror current events and hold mock elections in line with general elections or occasional referendums. This gives children an opportunity to learn about what is involved, and deepen their understanding of the importance of such events that they will encounter in the media.
Depending on the age of the children, this could provide excellent learning opportunities to look at party political agendas, with an emphasis on tolerance of differing viewpoints.
Co-constructing class rules or values
In primary schools, the first week of term often provides a good opportunity to write a set of class values or rules which will form a contract for the year ahead. This allows opportunity to discuss why rules are needed and how they benefit the whole community. Teachers can tie this in with learning about laws in a wider sense.
![british values homework ideas](https://www.highspeedtraining.co.uk/hub/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/group-of-college-friends.jpg)
Once the ideas are agreed, the class can work together to create a display for the classroom so that they can be easily referred to, or perhaps a charter that is signed by every member of the class – including the teaching staff.
Try to make these positive values or rules – so rather than ‘We do not interrupt’, opt for ‘We listen to each other’.
Teaching British Values in Secondary Schools
Strategies such as school councils or mock elections will also work well in a secondary setting, although you will be able to delve further into the intricacies of the democratic process with older children.
With regards to older children, some secondary schools have successfully created ‘school values’ in consultation with pupils. These can then become the basis of reward system – for example if one of the chosen values is ‘kindness’ then children who are found acting kindly to a peer can be rewarded with achievement points or some other form of recognition.
Both class and school rules should be reflective of a wider school culture of tolerance and respect.

Embedding British Values in the Wider School Culture
Across all key stages, lessons and strategies on the British values will not be successful in isolation. The key values need to be embedded in every area of school life, from official policies, to the ways children are greeted in corridors.
Children need to see the values reflected in the school culture, and to feel that they as individuals are treated with respect and tolerance, and they are in turn expected to treat others that way.
The following are some ways that schools can help cement such a culture:
- Behaviour policies – the values of tolerance and respect should be reflected in a clear and consistent behaviour policy.
- Celebrating differences – again this needs to be done on many levels, from choices in books for story time to acknowledging and celebrating a range of festivals in assemblies.
- Actively rewarding the values that you seek to instil – again this can be reflected in behaviour policies but it can be as simple as remembering to thank someone for their kindness.
- Valuing pupil voice – this needs to go further than having a school council because it is the ‘done thing’. Pupils’ views should be sought, listened to, and acted upon in an appropriate way. There should be a number of ways for students input into this – for example, focussed email surveys (where there is an opportunity to remain anonymous) can be useful.
Part of the Prevent Duty for the education sector is to promote British values and to be able to evidence this, through lesson plans and policies, etc. However, these values are not new to education. They are something you will already be promoting through your teaching practice – from teaching nursery-aged children to share resources and take turns, to encouraging A-level students to examine an issue from multiple viewpoints in an essay. We hope some of the strategies in this article will help you to recognise where you are already promoting British values in your practice, and to build upon them.

In 2014, the UK Government created five fundamental values that it proclaimed were the unifying values that were fundamental to British society and cohesion.
![british values homework ideas british values in education](https://helpfulprofessor.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/british-values-in-education.jpg)
The values were designed to balance freedom of thought, expression and choice in a liberal society with the need to maintain a safe and secure society.
The five British values are:
- Rule of law
- Individual liberty
- Mutual respect
British Values Definition
The five British Values are democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect for and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs and for those without faith. These are the 5 fundamental values that have been developed by the UK Government in an attempt to create social unity and prevent extremism.

How to Teach the 5 Fundamental Values in the Classroom
The Government guidance on the implementation of the fundamental values framework provides both examples of what students should know, and what to teach.
Examples of what students should know include:
- How to influence society through lawful democratic participation;
- That the freedom to religion, including the freedom of others to hold faiths other than your own, is enshrined in British law;
- That people of diverse faiths should all be respected and not be discriminated against as a result of their religious affiliations;
- That it is everyone’s responsibility to identify and challenge discrimination wherever it occurs.
Examples of teaching strategies include:
- A critical analysis of democracy, its strengths and weaknesses, and how it contrasts to other forms of governance;
- Implementation of small-scale democratic processes within schools that focus on childhood citizenship . This might include allowing students to have a voice on matters of importance to them and how their school is run;
- Hold mock elections, including mock election debates, through which students can voice their differences of opinion in respectful and tolerant ways.

Why do the 5 Values Exist? | (The Prevent Strategy, 2011)
The 5 Values were first outlined in the Prevent strategy of 2011.
The prevent Strategy’s purpose was to quell extremism. Both white nationalist and Islamic extremism were listed as threats to national unity within the Prevent Strategy document.
Within the document, extremism is defined as:
“vocal or active opposition to fundamental British values, including democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance for those with different faiths and beliefs.”
Within the Prevent strategy, teaching of the 5 values is not made compulsory. Rather, educators are asked to:
- Respect the 5 fundamental values;
- Report students who appear to be radicalized, as defined by contravention of those 5 values.
Later, in 2014, it would become compulsory to actively implement the 5 fundamental values outlined in this definition in British schools. The move to compulsory implementation is outlined below.
Why are British Values Compulsory in Schools? (The Trojan Horse Affair, 2013-14)
The 5 values were a response by the UK Government to fears of Islamisation of British Schools. In particular, they were a response to the moral panic caused by the release of a fake letter titled ‘Operation Trojan Horse’. The letter supposedly unveiled a plot for the takeover of Birmingham school curricula by religious extremists.
Here is the complete timeline of events:
November 2013: Operation Trojan Horse Letter
The values were created in response to rising fear of religious extremist thought in English schools, in particular the Trojan Horse Affair in Birmingham.
In November 2013, an anonymous person send Birmingham City Council a photocopy of a letter. It was claimed the letter was found on a boss’s desk.
The letter outlined plans to stealthily take over the operations of local Birmingham schools and implement an extreme Islamist curriculum.
The letter outlined five steps to the plan:
- Find schools where the majority of students are from a Muslim background;
- Identify a small group of parents within those schools who will agitate from within for an Islamic curriculum;
- Select staff members sympathetic to hard-line Islamism to cause trouble among staff resistant to any moves;
- Run an anonymous campaign aimed at getting the head teacher to resign. This would be done through letters to local parents and community members.
The letter also claimed that this operation had already succeeded at several schools in the Birmingham area, which were listed in the letter.
January 2014: News Reaches the Media
In December 2013, the ‘Operation Trojan Horse’ letter was handed over to the Department for Education and Home Office.
The letter was subsequently declared a fake by investigators.
Nonetheless, the letter was also leaked to the media in January 2014. When the media got their hands on it, the story grew very quickly with headlines like:
- The Daily Mail: “Revealed: Islamist plot dubbed ‘Trojan Horse’ to replace teachers in Birmingham schools with radicals”
- The Birmingham Mail: “Council leader calls for fightback on ‘schools jihad plot’”
Mid-2014: Snap OFSTED Inspections
OFSTED, the office in charge of monitoring schools’ competencies and compliance to laws, conducted snap inspections of 21 schools in Birmingham. Some of the schools had previously been rated ‘Outstanding’ by OFSTED. However, after the inspections, 5 schools were placed in the lowest rated category: “Special Measures”, indicating that the schools are inadequate.
Among the charges leveled against the schools were:
- Sex education classes were inadequate;
- Schools failed to provide sufficient education on religions other than Islam;
- Some classes were found to have been segregated according to gender;
- Girls and boys were discouraged from socializing with one another; and
- Teachers who voiced opposition to changes were found to have been bullied into compliance.
Furthermore, according to The Guardian , there was general agreement on the facts by all parties involved in the school inspections. These facts included:
- Schools in East Birmingham made strides to employ more Muslim educators and governors in order to align the teachers’ values with parents’ values;
- Prayer rooms and calls to prayer were introduced in some schools;
- Emphasis on creative arts, drama and music was dropped and preference was placed on basic literacy and numeracy.
Following this affair, education minister Michael Gove released statutory guidance insisting that democratic values be actively taught in schools – see below.
Do Schools have to Teach British Values?
In response to the Trojan Horse Affair and its aftermath, satutory guidance was released on 27 November 2014 requiring schools to put in place a clear action plan to implement the 5 values into their schools. While previously schools were required to ‘respect’ those values, from that day forward schools needed to clearly demonstrate how the values would be implemented in their school community.
Criticisms of the British Values | ‘Moral Panic’ Argument
There have been some criticisms of the move to implementing 5 national values in schools, including:
- The ‘Moral Panic’ Argument: The Trojan Horse Affair was widely found to have been discredited. The letter was believed to have been a hoax. Suspicious leaking of the letter to the media led to widespread moral panic at something that had little basis in fact, and which blew up to the extent that teaching of the 5 values are now compulsory in all schools
- The ‘Surveilance’ Argument: While white supremacism is mentioned in the Prevent strategy, it may be a thinly-veiled attempt at hiding the fact that this strategy is directly designed to increase surveilance on Muslim students and pressure them into assimilating.
- The ‘Libertarian’ Argument: The idea that there should be a list of government-mandated national values possibly flies in the face of liberalism, freedom of thought and freedom of speech . Forcing people to hold certain values is profoundly undemocratic.
Final Thoughts
The 5 fundamental British values are a controversial set of values. The controversy is linked as much to the reason behind their development (fear os Islamic extremism) as it is of their substance. The values themselves appear to represent the small-l liberalism that modern Britain, and indeed modern Europe, is founded upon. Nonetheless, there are some tensions within the framework. For example, does insisting that people hold certain values contravene their rights to freedom of thought and expression?

Outstanding British Values in Schools: Ideas and Free Display Materials
![british values homework ideas british values homework ideas](https://www.votesforschools.com/site/templates/images/v-icon.png)
As a primary teacher, you know how important it is to instill British Values in your students. These values – democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect and tolerance – are essential for building a strong and inclusive society. One way to promote British Values in your school is by creating a display that highlights them. In this blog post, we'll provide you with ideas and free resources to create a visually appealing and informative display that promotes British Values.
Planning a British Values Display
Planning a display takes time and effort, but the end result is worth it. Involving your students in the planning process can be a great way to promote their engagement and ownership of the display. Here are some tips for planning an effective British Values display:
- Start by deciding on the message you want to convey. This could be a specific value, such as 'democracy', or a more general message about the importance of British Values.
- Consider the location of the display. It should be in a prominent location where it will be seen by everyone who passes by.
- Think about the design and layout of the display. You can use posters, lettering, and other materials to make it visually appealing and engaging.
- Involve your students in the creation of the display. This could be by asking them to contribute their own ideas or by getting them to help with the creation of the display materials.
Free British Values Display Pack
To make it easier for you to create your own British Values display, we've created a range of free resources that you can download and use. These include posters, lettering, and pupil voice speech bubbles.

Fundamental British Values in our Curriculum
The school is required to develop and deepen pupils’ understanding of the fundamental British values of democracy, individual liberty, the rule of law and mutual respect and tolerance.
- Safeguarding – to keep students safe from radicalisation and extremism
- Social Development (SMSC) – skills and attitudes that will allow students to participate fully in and contribute positively to life in modern Britain.
- Ofsted Inspection Framework – personal development. Schools with ‘important weaknesses in the provision for pupils’ SMSC development’ are graded as inadequate.
We think we embed an understanding of FBV, but need to know precisely when and where across the curriculum to determine if this is true.
How the criteria of Fundamental British Values may be fulfilled

- The Art of Rhetoric unit focuses speeches dealings with human rights issues e.g. MLK, Obama, Greta
- Speech reading and writing develops their rhetoric and gives them the tools to express themselves honestly and fully.
- The poetry unit builds an appreciation of poetry as a significant form of expression. It exposes students to issues that have impeded on human rights before and the backlash against that (war including conscription and manipulative propaganda, cultural poems expressing individual values and rights).
- Gothic literature of the Victorian period teaches students about the social constraints of the past and helps them to appreciate the liberty they have today.
- Dystopias deal with societies fraught with totalitarian constraints. Students explore what life would be like living in a world with less freedom, and fewer rights, and analyse the impact it has on the characters and how it creates unease in the reader. Through these analytical and discussion activities, students formulate their own appreciation of the rights they have and the importance of maintaining liberty.
- A focus on modern texts like Wonder and A Curious Case of the Dog in the Nighttime helps to build an inclusive ethos for individuals expressing themselves as they truly are. This creates discussions around current social issues and perceptions of others.
- Similarly to the Gothic study and the Dystopian unit, in studying Romanticism, the Victorian period teaches students about the social constraints of the past and helps them to appreciate the liberty they have today.
- Frankenstein- a recap of Gothic conventions and reviewing past social constraints, this text allows students to appreciate the possible repercussions of individual liberty in the form of punishment for the main character.
- Macbeth- by reflecting upon a Victorian text, context teaches students to look at the restrictions that existed, such as that on the lower classes or on women, and students are able to make comparisons to the modern era in which many of these constraints no longer exist.
- Poetry- by being able to explore further examples of poetry linked to war and conflict, students are able to reflect upon powerful thoughts and feelings evoked by restrictions to individual liberty. Namely, poems like The Emigree, Kamikaze and Checking Out Me History stand out in this regard.
- In addition, students study Never Let Me Go, a dystopian text which considers moral and ethical implications of using clones to increase the life-span of people who can afford to harvest them. In discussing this text, students again appreciate their own liberties and should notice the links between this text and previous Year 9 Dystopian study around similar themes: the need for individuality, individual liberty and the need to protect their rights in order to maintain their freedom.
- As with our Year 9 and 11 study of Dystopian texts, this year includes the study of more mature dystopian content (The Handmaid’s Tale). Contextual information covers eras and countries where individual freedoms are not at the level that we enjoy in the UK in our time. This is linked to dystopian texts to explore the significance of our human rights as they stand, and where they could be improved.
- Poems from different cultures engages with poems written by poets with different faiths.
- Macbeth looks at the Divine Right of Kings and through context students look at the different beliefs of protestant and catholic faiths.

The understanding that natural resources are shared between countries and the allocation of them is shared. Sustainable development is a central theme in Geography and is revisited throughout all key stages. Students recognise the importance of a democratic process of decision-making to ensure that all voices are heard
Year 8 – Biomes
- The importance of international agreements and law to protect ecosystems, e.g, COP 26. Students look at global issues such as deforestation.

Year 12 – Regenerating Places
- Levels of Engagement can be measured by National Election Turnout and Local Election turnout. Engagement in society can also be measured by participation (number attending and support for) community groups, and also the development of such groups in a society. Participation is seen to vary according to age, ethnicity, length of residence, levels of deprivation and gender. Successful regeneration and successful communities rely on high levels of community engagement.

Year 12 – Globalisation
- Discussing issues surrounding globalisation and the legislation that has derived as a result of this. Discussions surrounding anti-globalisation and newly established laws with increasing barriers between countries/nations.
- Planning law determines how regeneration can take place. Students are made aware of how this process works including the role of Central Government in making/passing planning law, and the role of local government in applying it in the local context, together with the role of democracy in elected councillors voting on planning decisions in the local area. The necessity of law to provide opportunities for public consultation and revisions, together with the need for environmental impact assessments and other legal requirements. Students also look at secondary data regarding crime and investigate data relating to their own local place, and several contrasting places.
- Understanding of the laws and legislation that encourage and prohibit the movement of people. Exploration and evaluating the outcomes of meetings of governments and international organisations and policy makers. Consideration to the geopolitical issues that have dissected communities and caused conflict, and how international organisations attempt to combat such issues through adoption of international laws. Geography encourages students to investigate countries from around the world and helps our students to empathize with people from different countries and people with different cultures around the world. For instance, the importance of human rights and laws and the legislation that is established to help people around the world. Studying of The UN, it inception, its structure and the legislation that has been developed over time to protect people and communities worldwide.
- The law is seen under different scales for superpowers – for example the Law of individual countries, together with the Law for Umbrella organisations such as the United Nations – and their role and powers.Law is also covered under trade agreements and issues such as patents and copyright. The importance of diplomacy is covered, including the various mechanisms of Hard and Soft power to influence decisions and avoid war.

Year 9 – Russia
- Appreciation of living in a society with greater tolerance for others, e.g. LGBTQ+.
- Understanding that different countries have different levels of development and this may have an effect on different communities. Diversity is celebrated in Geography. The importance of tolerance is promoted throughout the Key Stages, with students frequently being asked to see issues from different perspectives to help guide their judgements. For instance, the ‘development’ unit and the importance of providing a tolerant and accepting environment to ensure that conflict does not take place.
- Are economies open and accessible to all, or are some minorities excluded from economic opportunities and development on the basis of their different faith or belief?
Year 11 – Urban Issues
- Students consider the diversity of urban areas and how planners carefully consider the involvement of communities within these areas. A fundamental concept which is revisited in Geography is the importance of public institutions and the decisions that are made regarding them. The importance of politics and the impacts on public services are discussed throughout a number of topics. For example, in Year 11, students develop an understanding of the role of population change in the UK. (Changing Economic World). They investigate the importance of migration and an ageing population in understanding the changing needs for services in the UK. Consideration given to the north – south divide and the recent policy with regards to ‘levelling up’, and how to reduce such disparity. Students are also exposed to the importance of migration in this country and understand the advantages that migration brings.
- Globalisation enables students to understand the differences between people across the world. Sharing of information, ideas, and cultures.
- Regeneration is studied in the context of the need for regeneration and the problems experienced by segregation, especially that which might be created by different faiths etc. A case study of Detroit in USA and the problems of de-industrialisation and ‘White flight’ from inner city areas and increasing concentrations of poor black people replacing them is covered. Successful regeneration is seen as that which addresses these sorts of issues and involves making all people feel members of society. Fieldwork allows pupils to investigate firsthand, and by looking at secondary data about places they are familiar with and contrasting with those areas they are less familiar with.
- Develop an understanding and respect of different cultures, and how governments and policy makers attempt to assimilate society. Respecting and and understanding diversity of life in other countries. How nationalism is reinforced through education, sport and culture and political parties.
- Commons goals often create mutual respect. The issues such as climate change require countries to understand different perspectives on development and historic levels of pollution in order to create a pathway whereby countries are prepared to sign up to challenging environmental targets.

- Core Practicals 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14 and 15 all have a risk assessment element. The requirement for providing for the health and safety of the student and others in the vicinity is developed through a series of risk assessments that they undertake. Core practical 8 involves an activity in which students undertake a risk assessment from the viewpoint of a teacher planning a class practical using lasers. Students use safety information to plan how the practical can be undertaken given a room plan, ensuring the safety of the students doing the practical, the students who may be doing other work at the same time, and people passing the lab or entering it. In Core Practical 15 students use guidance from the CLEAPSS school science service to undertake a risk assessment and hence learn about regulations and documents such as codes of practice. Students’ safe working is assessed in Core Practicals 4, 5, 8, 13 and 15.
Key Stage 5 Biology (various times of the year)
- Practical requirement to research and write a scientific method. They must reference, and not plagiarise.
Biology (all years at all times)
- Risk assessments have been carried out for all practical activities. CLEAPS guidance is followed. Students wear goggles for practicals that have a risk. Fume cupboards are used when using volatile solvents.
Year 9 Term 5 Biology
- Doping in sport and discussing why it’s illegal in the sports. Focusing on the social and physical reasons why people would want to do, and how it damages the reputation of the sport.
Chemistry (all year groups at all times)
- We enforce simple rules such as: No eating and drinking in laboratories: Appropriate dress / no jewellery / no (extended) nails essential to safe laboratory work.
- In the ‘nanoparticles’ topic students consider and discuss some of the potential issues with introducing nanoscale particulates into the environment, including the potential for unknown wider effects on other nations and other economies, potentially infringing international law. For instance, some of the countries worst affected by microplastics produce very few themselves.
Year 12 & 13 Chemistry (in all practical work and core practical activity)
- A recognition that health and safety legislation must be followed for all work where COSHH applies (which is all practical work). In many cases students produce these risk assessments themselves
- Safety aspects related to use of ionising radiations explained and linked to the risks of irradiation and contamination
- Possible dangers of mobile phone microwave frequencies are discussed related to experiments conducted on rats.
GCSE Physics P1 Year 10 Term 1
- In topic 2, lesson 13 we discuss safe driving, reasons for the laws relating to driving under the influence of drink/drugs or use of mobile phones while driving and the stopping distances published in the highway code.
- In Topic 3 whilst discussing changes in our use of energy resources for the generation of electricity students will learn how fossil fuel use in the UK has declined in order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and they may well discuss the role of international agreements e.g. Kyoto Protocol and the change in a national strategy for energy use and consequential changes in laws (but this is not a requirement of the scheme of work)
- Through the risk assessment activities students learn how their right to safety and wellbeing is provided in school and in scientific establishments.
Year 10 Chemistry
- When considering the development of Chemistry as a science, we may explore the way in which many pioneering chemists were rich aristocrats and profiteers of the slave trade, discussing whether their names should be struck from the historical record because of how they obtained their funds, rather than what they did with their wealth.
Year 7 Chemistry
- Students learn in their first Chemistry unit that safety is the responsibility of everybody, and everybody has the right to a safe and purposeful working environment.
Year 9 Chemistry
- Students learn about incomplete combustion and the serious consequences of carbon monoxide poisoning. They learn about signs to look out for and what they can do to protect themselves and others they live with.
GCSE Physics P1 Year 10 Term 3
- In the topic on waves, Global Warming is discussed and how the Earth’s temperature is increasing as ‘greenhouse’ gases increase in the atmosphere. Who’s responsibility is this to combat?
- In Radioactivity unit we study uses of radioisotopes and weigh up the benefits of radioactivity with their side effects
- In topic 3 Energy conservation is discussed in terms of use of insulation systems – this is revisited in topic 5 where a core practical focuses on heat loss from hot objects. Embodies individual choice to help preserve limited resources or not.
Year 10 Chemistry, CP Neutralisation
- Neutralisation is the reaction of an acid with a base that results in the pH moving towards seven. It is a useful process that occurs in everyday life with the treatment of acid indigestion and the treating of acidic soil by adding lime.
Year 13 Physics Term 3
- In the Particle Physics unit students learn about the change in scientists’ beliefs about the nature of matter and the development of theories about the structure of atoms, sub-atomic particles and the concepts of conservation of mass and conservation of energy, leading to the concept of mass-energy conservation.
Year 10 Biology Term 2
- Research and debate on Stem cell uses. Understand the scientific need to research, but understanding the ethical and moral objections to it.
Year 10 Biology Term 2, Year 13 Biology Term 4
- Research and debate on Genetic engineering uses. Understand the scientific need to research, but understanding the ethical and moral objections to it.
Year 13 Biology Term 4
- Research and debate on gene therapy. Understand the scientific need to research, but understanding the ethical and moral objections to it.
Year 10 Term 2, Year 13 Term 4
- Sex determination and that sex is more than the inheritance of the X and Y chromosomes.
Year 10 Term 2 Biology
- Human genome project has changed the direction of medicine and what Scientists are capable of doing. But genetic screening can lead to discrimination.
- Research and debate on transplants. Understand the scientific need to research, but understanding the ethical and moral objections to it.
- Understanding the different theories surrounding evolution. Explaining how Darwin and Wallace struggled to publish their findings because of the clash it had with the Christian teachings.
Year 11 Term 3 Biology
- Research and debate on IVF. Understand the scientific need to research, but understanding the ethical and moral objections to it.
Year 13 Chemistry
- In the ‘acids’ topic students learn how Svante Arrhenius was vilified for scientifically ‘heretical’ theories on ionic theory, which later proved to be correct, leading to his award of the Nobel Prize (but not before his career had been ruined by a pro-consensus pro-dogma establishment). Analogues are then drawn to the RC Church censorship of Copernicus and Galileo.
- Topic on space explores how different theories of the solar system have developed and have changed. Religious beliefs have had to shift given the discoveries made in the Sixteenth Century.
- Discussing the problem of acid rain. Where those countries that pollute (release acidic gases are often not the countries that suffer the consequences of acid rain. How British and international law needs to adapt to combat this.

British Values in the Workplace
![british values homework ideas flag-british-values-in-the-workplace](https://workplacehero.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/flag-british-values-in-the-workplace.png?width=276&height=222&name=flag-british-values-in-the-workplace.png)
Understanding the Four Pillars of Fundamental British Values
Fundamental British Values (FBV) are rooted in the principles that shape our society and provide a foundation for a harmonious workplace. The four pillars of FBV are democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect and tolerance. Democracy ensures that every voice is heard, empowering employees to actively participate in decision-making processes. The rule of law promotes fairness, justice, and accountability, ensuring that everyone is treated equally. Individual liberty allows employees to express themselves freely, fostering creativity and personal growth. Finally, mutual respect and tolerance create a diverse and inclusive work environment where everyone feels valued. Understanding and embodying these pillars in the office is key to building a positive work culture and promoting British values in your daily interactions.
Thinking "How can you demonstrate British values in your workplace?", here are some key things to consider.
![british values homework ideas british-values-in-the-workplace-democracy](https://workplacehero.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/british-values-in-the-workplace-democracy.png?width=1200&height=627&name=british-values-in-the-workplace-democracy.png)
Integrating Democracy into Your Workplace Behaviour
To truly embrace the fundamental British value of democracy in your workplace, it's important to create an environment where every voice is heard and valued. Encourage open communication and active participation in decision-making processes. Hold regular team meetings or forums where employees can share their ideas, opinions, and concerns. Implement a fair voting system for important decisions that involve the whole team. By involving everyone in the decision-making process, you foster a sense of ownership and collaboration within your team. Remember, democracy isn't just about voting; it's about creating a culture that values and respects the opinions of every individual. Integrate democracy in your workplace , and watch as your team flourishes and grows.

Embracing the Rule of Law in a Professional Environment
In order to create a professional environment that embraces the fundamental British values of the rule of law, it is essential to ensure fairness, justice, and accountability within your workplace. Treat all employees equally and ensure that policies and procedures are consistently enforced. This means that everyone should be held accountable for their actions, regardless of their position or seniority. Implement clear guidelines and codes of conduct that promote ethical behaviour and professional integrity. By upholding the rule of law, you create a workplace culture that values honesty, trust, and respect. This not only enhances productivity and efficiency but also fosters a sense of security and stability among employees. Embrace the rule of law in your professional environment and watch as your workplace thrives with integrity and fairness.

Ensuring Individual Liberty through Personal and Career Growth
As individuals, we all have unique talents, aspirations, and ambitions. Ensuring individual liberty through personal and career growth is essential for creating a work environment that promotes British values. By embracing the fundamental British value of individual liberty, employers can provide opportunities for employees to express themselves freely, explore their passions, and grow both personally and professionally. Encouraging employees to set goals, pursue professional development opportunities, and take ownership of their careers empowers them to thrive in their chosen paths. Recognising and supporting the individuality of each team member fosters a sense of fulfilment, motivation, and loyalty. Embracing individual liberty not only benefits employees but also leads to a more innovative and dynamic workplace culture. So, seize the opportunity to nurture personal and career growth, and watch your team soar to new heights.
Nurturing Mutual Respect and Tolerance Amongst Colleagues
In order to create a workplace that truly embodies the fundamental British values of mutual respect and tolerance , it is crucial to foster an environment where diversity is celebrated and everyone feels valued. Encourage open dialogue and understanding amongst colleagues, promoting empathy and kindness in all interactions. Embrace different perspectives and opinions, encouraging healthy debates and discussions that lead to growth and understanding. Implement diversity training programmes and initiatives that raise awareness and promote inclusivity. By nurturing mutual respect and tolerance in office relations, you create a harmonious and supportive workplace culture that values and respects the uniqueness of every individual. Let's work together to create a workplace where everyone feels heard, valued, and included.
