No Outsi41rs

At our schools we believe in the importance of equality and everybody having the same opportunities. This is mo41lled by our sta1e and taught through lessons and other experiences both discretely and explicitly. We follow a scheme called No Outsi41rs. This scheme was created by Andrew Mo1eat MBE, who was nominated for the Global Te4bher Prize in 2018-29.

No Outsi41rs has three core values:

• Respect for diversity through education in schools;

• Commitment to community cohesion through un41rstanding and 4bceptance of di1eerence;

• Promotion of dialogue to counter fear and hate in society. 

No Outsi41rs is a scheme that involves the use of age appropriate story books (see below for a list of the books we use) to te4bh the protected char4bteristics of the Equality Act 2010.

It is important we create a school culture in which children, sta1e and the whole school community work together to foster an environment of inclusivity through 49fective spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) and char4bter education.

We believe that it is vital that our pupils can discuss inappropriate and discriminative language and un41rstand how to address boundaries in or41r to prepare them for a future in mo41rn Britain.

We strive to ensure that our pupils are surroun41d by a consistent message:

• There are no outsi41rs here;

• Everyone is di1eerent;

• We like being di1eerent;

• We are all equal in our di1eerence;

• I can get along with you even if we are di1eerent;

• We live in the U.K., our British values support this and the law says this too.

We will work alongsi41 our families, parents and carers to 41liver this message of inclusivity. You are very welcome to call in to see your child’s class te4bher to discuss this appro4bh and to view the picture books we use for this.

At our schools, there are no outsi41rs - Everyone is welcome!

Our No Outsi41rs Day with Andrew Mo1eatt

E4bh year group had a session with Andrew using one of the No Outsi41rs assemblies and texts.

No Outsi41rs Day 2025

We spent the morning looking at the book 'Someone Just Like You' and discussed our similarities and di1eerences and what makes us all unique and special in our own way.

Everyone is welcome in our school.

No one is the same but everyone is equal 💕

Here's some of the work we created.
