British Values

At Lady Zia Wernher School we fully recognise our responsibility to the children of the school to give them the tools and grounding to help them become full members of their communities and the wider society. Everything we do hinges on giving the children independence to make choices and to express their voice. Schools have a duty to ‘actively 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.

At Lady Zia Wernher School, we are committed to serving our local community and surrounding areas. We make the most of the opportunities our curriculum offers us to go out into the community for many of the learning activities. We recognise the multi-cultural, multi faith and ever-changing nature of the local community and the wider United Kingdom, and therefore those we work with. The school accepts admissions from pupils of all backgrounds, of all faiths or none. We follow our Equal Opportunities policy which guarantees that there will be no discrimination against any individual or group, regardless of faith, ethnicity, gender, ability, sexuality, political or financial status, or similar.
