Promotion of British Values
At CCGS we are dedicated to promoting values which ensure that our students develop a strong sense of social and moral responsibility. We prepare our students for life in Modern Britain by developing an understanding of:
- Democracy
- The rule of law

- Mutual respect
- Tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs
CCGS organises a programme of assemblies delivered by external speakers, staff and pupils in which aspects of SMSC (spiritual, moral, social and cultural), health and wellbeing and wider relationships in the modern world are explored.
