British values

At The Oldham Academy North, we actively promote values which ensure that our students develop a strong sense of social and moral responsibility.

We prepare our students for life in modern Britain by developing an understanding of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs.

These values underpin the work we do and are promoted at various times throughout the academy year, extending beyond the classroom with a wide range of visits and experiences.

As academy leaders we are responsible for providing a curriculum which is innovative, broad and balanced, complies with statutory requirements and provides a wide range of subjects which prepare students for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of life in modern Britain.

Our curriculum offer actively promotes the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of faiths and beliefs, and is supported by a programme of assemblies that offer guidance and space for reflection.

In conclusion we believe that we allow our students to recognise right from wrong, resolve conflicts, understand and explore diversity, develop a moral code, understand others beliefs and understand how communities function. These qualities will allow them to participate fully in life in modern Britain.
