Individual liberty and personal and social responsibility
Reflecting on these topics and learning about how they have come about.
Respect and tolerance
Having opportunities to learn about how Britain has become a more tolerant and welcoming nation.
For each aspect there is some information –including that which is critical of common perceptions of the nation (especially in the past but also today as with gender inequality).
There is a range of activities some of which help develop greater knowledge and understanding of modern Britain and others which require a co-operative problem solving approach which involves listening to others ideas and accepting different approaches as well as reflecting on their own values.
