At Hasland Infant and Nursery School, we embrace the fundamental British Values that help prepare children for life in modern Britain. We actively promote democracy, where every voice is valued; the rule of law, helping children understand the importance of rules and responsibilities; individual liberty, encouraging independence and freedom of choice; and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths, beliefs and backgrounds.

These values are embedded throughout school life and underpin our SMILE expectations, which help children understand how to treat others with respect, take responsibility for their actions, and make positive contributions to the school and wider community. Through these principles, we aim to develop responsible, respectful and compassionate young citizens who are well prepared for life in modern society.
