British Values

This course is an introduction to the four key British Values and how they relate to you in your daily life.

Introduction 

Values are principles, standards or qualities that an individual or group of people hold in high regard.

These values guide the way we live our lives and the decisions we make. A value may be defined as something that we hold dear, those things or qualities which we consider to be of worth.

A ‘value’ is commonly formed by a particular belief that is related to the worth of an idea or type of behaviour. Some people may see great value in saving the world’s rainforests. However, a person who relies on the logging of a forest for their job may not place the same value on the forest as a person who wants to save it.
