The Values Foundation For Faith And Families In Education

the values foundation for faith and families in education

London

In the United Kingdom various providers have always been able to run their own schools, whether via the maintained or independent sector. This has enabled many faith and other groups to establish and run schools which appeal to different cohorts throughout the country. In England, all schools registered with the Department for Education need to comply with regulations and guidelines which are based on legislation and current educational thinking. Schools are inspected and regulated by Ofsted – a non-ministerial department of the UK Government. Since the 2010 Equalities Act, and more recently the Children and Social Work Act 2018, the Department for Education has revised their regulations and guidelines in such a way that challenges foundational religious beliefs and traditional family values. It is very clear that Ofsted and the Department for Education are focused on promoting an agenda whereby “all protected characteristics are equal, but some characteristics are more equal than others”. Simultaneously there has been a calculated and concerted effort by secular humanist organisations to not only investigate and undermine practices in faith schools, but to attack the bedrocks of convention and belief that are the cornerstones of schools who promote faith and traditional family structures. The current challenges in education threaten human rights including the freedom of parents to choose the education they wish for their child.

Here at HeadStart Primary, we provide Maths, English and Science teaching and assessment materials for primary schools. All the authors who write for HeadStart Primary have many years of teaching experience and have a wide knowledge of which resources are effective for the development of children’s learning. As a former primary headteacher, I was very fortunate in leading a dedicated and highly skilled team of teachers and teaching assistants to achieve an ‘outstanding’ grade at my last Ofsted inspection. My ethos as CEO of HeadStart Primary is the same as it has been throughout my teaching career. I believe success can be achieved by applying tried and tested principles with care, determination and consistency. I know how busy teachers are, and I understand that teachers need top-quality, easy-to-use and time-saving resources to help them with the demands of delivering a rich curriculum. Our materials are designed with great care and attention to detail. The process of writing starts with the focus on the child, and how the content will help an individual pupil learn. The most important person in a child’s school day is their class teacher, and class teachers need resources that are effective in supporting their high-quality teaching. School leaders understand the need for a consistent systematic approach across the school, and whilst our materials meet this criteria, they also complement and facilitate good and outstanding teaching.

Redwood Scholars Tuition are independent educational centres where a friendly team of qualified and experienced teachers provide support to students who need help to become independent and successful learners, whatever their age and aim. We strive to build confidence, raise self-esteem and motivation through knowledge and skills development. As teachers and Montessori philosophy followers, we strongly believe that children are naturally inquisitive and wish to learn. It is just that happy and well guided students do it quicker, enjoy it more and, overall, achieve better results. At Redwood Scholars we work with bespoke resources as well as carefully selected range of supplementary teaching materials to give our students the best learning experience during their 80 minute tutoring sessions, classes for home schooled students or Montessori workshops. All our resources are up-to-date and reflect current requirements of early years, primary and secondary school curriculum. To ensure success, our teachers explore psychology behind children - their behaviours, learning journeys as well as emotional and social development. Education and learning are an enormous entity which requires a great deal of skill to impart knowledge to others successfully. This is why we make sure that our teachers are professionals who share our passion for discovering and developing potentials in every child who attends our centres. Being OFSTED registered as a child care provider, we follow OFSTED guidlines for policies and best practice to ensure safety, security and high quality provision for all our students. All our tutors are DBS checked. This not only should give you peace of mind but also save you money as there are schemes available to contribute to the cost of your child attending our centres (their availability will depend on your individual circumstances).
