Bromley Beacon Academy SMSC (Spiritual, Moral, Social & Cultural) Calendar for 2018/2019

Transcription

1 Bromley Beacon Academy SMSC (,, & ) Calendar for 2018/ This is an overview of the key events we have planned for this year. There are so many worthy charities and awareness days we have tried to include a range of different awareness celebrations. These develop our sense of community; develop our values and our knowledge, tolerance, understanding and support of others. The personal development of pupils, spiritually, morally, socially and culturally plays a significant part in their ability to learn and achieve. We therefore aim to provide an education with inbuilt opportunities to explore and develop their own values and beliefs, spiritual awareness, high standards of personal behaviour, a positive caring attitude towards other people, an understanding of their social and cultural traditions and an appreciation of the diversity and richness of many cultures. This is embedded throughout all aspects of school life. Our everyday education: Is holistic rather than focused narrowly on purely academic aspects of learning Provides opportunities which include learning how to play and work together, understanding each other, our rights and views. Prepares learners to contribute to society and culture throughout their lives and enables them to contribute positively to the life of the school, community and wider society. Gives everyone a change to celebrate their uniqueness and that of others. As well as our commitment to a curriculum model that supports this approach and ongoing enrichment opportunities we have a timetable of events and activities which support and enhance what we offer.
