SMSC & British Values School Audit Tool 2025

Strengthen your school’s SMSC and British Values provision with this powerful management tool, specifically designed by the National Quality Mark to support schools in improving SMSC outcomes for children, young people, and the entire educational community.

Designed with the latest Ofsted framework in mind, this resource empowers your school to conduct a thorough audit and evaluate your schools existing provision whilst helping to plan your next steps for your school development plan.

It’s structured into 8 key standards, making it easy for your SMSC coordinator, in collaboration with subject and year group leaders, to assess and enhance your school’s provision:

S1 Safeguarding & Induction
S2 Leadership & Governance
S3 Attendance
S4 Behaviour (including Pastoral support)
S5 Inclusion
S6 Curriculum
S7 Personal Development
S8 Developing Teaching & Learning

Each standard is further broken down into clear sub-standards, allowing for precise grading using the ‘Emerging’, ‘Evolving’, ‘Established’, and ‘Exemplary’ levels. Alongside each standard is a list of recommended reference points which you can use to help you gather the evidence you will need to evaluate your provision.

This managemtool is your definitive guide to achieving excellence in SMSC and Modern British Values.

NB This release includes two versions of the tool to suit your school’s needs. Both versions feature user-friendly dropdown boxes for grading your provision. Version 7.4 offers the added convenience of built-in macros that automatically calculate your score, streamlining the process. Please note that you will need to enable macros when you first open this version. For schools where network security settings restrict the use of macros, we have also included version 7.2, which provides the same functionality without automated scoring.
