Mapping British values across the school

What is the simplest way of showing Ofsted that you are actively promoting British values?

The fact is that auditing or mapping what’s happening in terms of actively promoting British values across the school can be a complex and time-consuming task. Not least because it runs across so many departments.

Indeed, so complex is the situation that trying to change the teaching in any way while simultaneously introducing methods of recording what is being done is nigh on impossible.

As Russell Hobby, of the NAHT, recently said, “our advice for most members is: don’t do anything new, make sure you capture and describe the good work you are already doing.”

Which is why we’ve produced a simple and effective tool to audit and track what the school is doing actively to promote British values. It doesn’t suggest what should be taught – it just records what is being done in order to satisfy Ofsted.

In short, the aim of the tool is to make the recording and tracking quick and easy to use by everyone in the school so that each colleague’s contribution to the promotion of British values can be added to the record within moments.

But there is more, for we also wanted to make sure that with our approach the promotion of British values is better co-ordinated across the curriculum. And again that is what we have achieved.

What we found – and indeed what Ofsted found – is that through using it to co-ordinate the school’s actions, SMSC Gridmaker not only audited and tracked work in this field, but the teaching itself became better co-ordinated across the curriculum as a result.

You can see SMSC Gridmaker in action on our website. Alternatively you can try it yourself for free by clicking here.
