Character Development and British Values
At Glenfield, our dedication to character development and the promotion of fundamental British values stands at the heart of our educational ethos. Guided by our inspiring motto, "Being the best we can be," we are committed to fostering an environment that not only prioritizes academic excellence but also places a significant emphasis on nurturing strong character and values.
Our carefully crafted curriculum provides students with a diverse range of opportunities to develop essential life skills, resilience, and a profound sense of responsibility. We seamlessly integrate the teaching of British values—such as democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect—into our daily learning experiences. This ensures that our pupils are not only academically proficient but also well-prepared for modern Britain, equipped with the knowledge and values to become exemplary citizens.
Our PSHE curriculum is designed to offer students regular opportunities to reflect on healthy lifestyle choices, manage their mental health and well-being, learn about personal safety, and understand their emotions and feelings. Complementing this, we provide a rich array of extra-curricular activities, trips, events, and opportunities to further enrich their character development and holistic education.
At Glenfield, we are passionate about nurturing the whole individual, fostering both academic achievement and personal growth. We strive to cultivate a community of lifelong learners who are empowered to make positive contributions to society.
