Spiritual, Moral, Social, and Cultural Development (SMSC) at Holbrook Primary.
At Holbrook, we aspire for our pupils to become successful, confident learners and responsible citizens. Guided by our BEST vision and values, we are committed to creating an environment that not only enables children to learn and develop to their full potential but also promotes vital moral principles. We emphasise the importance of respect, forgiveness, empathy for others, and acceptance of differences within our diverse community. Through our SMSC curriculum, we aim to encourage independence, resilience, cooperation, and collaborative working, ensuring that our pupils are well-prepared for the complexities of modern society.
In pursuing this mission, we prioritise the spiritual, moral, social, cultural, intellectual, and physical development of each child. Our curriculum is meticulously designed to engage, excite, and provide meaningful and rigorous learning experiences. We stimulate questioning and challenge, fostering an aspirational and creative learning environment that is both flexible and responsive to the needs of our pupils.
We recognise the significance of equipping our students to become informed citizens for today and the future. To achieve this, we incorporate a wealth of opportunities that support spiritual, moral, social, and cultural development, aligning with the principles outlined in the Equality Act (2010) and embracing global education themes. We confidently affirm our commitment to the academic, personal development, and well-being of every child, ensuring they are not only learners but also conscientious members of society.
