He reminded students that an important part of being educated is learning how to be tolerant and to value other people’s opinions and views, even if you don’t agree with them.

He related this theory to the strong and embedded values in our school of Respect, Responsibility and Relationships. If we get those right we will create that tolerant and respectful community we all want and desire.

He also flagged up the upcoming House Gaming Competition and the Annual Foodbank Collection – look out for more information about these events after half term.
