Moral – Recognise right and wrong and respect the law; understand consequences; investigate moral and ethical issues and offer reasoned views, including individual liberty being free to express views or ideas

Social – Use a range of social skills to participate in the local community and beyond; appreciate diverse viewpoints; participate, volunteer and cooperate; resolve conflict.

Cultural – Appreciate cultural influences; appreciate the role of Britain’s parliamentary system; participate in culture opportunities; understand, accept, respect and celebrate diversity, including democracy, being part of a system where everyone plays an equal part and Rule of law, to learn that all people and institutions are subject to and accountable for their actions and behaviour
