Fen Ditton Primary School

Our Values

As a community we have agreed to follow and promote these 4 values:    

• Respect

• Kindness

• Courage

• Resilience 

 We also pomote British Values

The DfE have recently reinforced the need to "to create and enforce a clear and rigorous expectation on all schools to

promote the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and

tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs."

The Government set out its definition of British values in the 2011 Prevent Strategy, and these values were reiterated in 2014.
