Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural Development

The social, moral, spiritual and cultural development (SMSC) of the children in our care is at the heart of our curriculum and underpins the ethos and values of Locking Primary School. 

Our Curriculum is shaped by:

• the aspirations we have for our children, both now and in the future
• the kind of people we wish our children to become as they grow and contribute to their community and wider world
• the world we aspire to create for the children in our care and the world the children wish to have for their future
• the education we aspire to provide for the children at our school

We use SMSC as a vehicle to promote Fundamental British Values

• democracy
• the rule of law
• individual liberty
• mutual respect for and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs and for those without faith
