British Values was the topic of the assemblies last week for Arena Academy.

Students learnt about Democracy, Rule of Law, Individual Liberty, & Mutual Respect and Tolerance of religious beliefs, alongside what each of these values mean to their Academy.


Students had the opportunity to take part in a research study by engagements and insight agency Beat Freeks, who work with young people who dare to use their creativity to challenge the way of the world.
