Britannia
Primary School and Nursery
Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural Education (SMSC) describes the guidance and experiences school provides for pupils which help them to understand the values which our country holds dear and which help to bond our school together, both as a community and to its community.
At Britannia, we ensure that the children are aware of these four strands and how they link to learning and life lessons so crucially. Below are some examples of these four strands in action in our school.
Spiritual
Moral
Social
Cultural
In EYFS and KS1, these four strands are linked to animals and you may hear your children referring to Spiritual Stingray, Moral Moose, Social Snake and Cultural Cat! These characters embody the associated concept and enable the children to discuss them within lessons with adults and peers.
In LKS2 and UKS2, children are encouraged to make explicit links between the four strands and their learning and look for links between different subjects and experiences. This all makes for rich and informed discussions around learning, societal issues, world news and much more.
