Spiritual, Moral and Cultural Development

 

Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural development is central to our curriculum. At Jamiatul Ummah, we pride ourselves in incorporating opportunities for our pupils to develop their understanding of their own selves and also the pluralistic world they are in.

 

Spiritual

Our pupils explore their own beliefs and lived experiences and those of others. They respect faiths, feelings and values, enjoy learning about themselves, others and the surrounding world. Our pupils learn to be imaginative and creative, sharing their ideas and viewpoints with others.

Moral

Our pupils are taught to recognise right and wrong, to respect the law, to understand consequences and to investigate moral and ethical issues. They are given opportunity to share well-informed and reasoned viewpoints.

Social

Our pupils use a range of social skills, participate in the local community, appreciate diverse viewpoints, volunteer and cooperate with others in and out of school, resolve conflict, engage with the British values of democracy, the rule of law, liberty, respect and tolerance.

Cultural

Our pupils understand and appreciate cultural influences. They appreciate the role of the English parliamentary system, participate in culture opportunities, understand, accept, respect and celebrate diversity.
