No Outsi1drs
At our schools we believe in the importance of equality and everybody having the same opportunities. This is mo1dlled by our st56f and taught through lessons and other experiences both discretely and explicitly. We follow a scheme called No Outsi1drs. This scheme was cr54ted by Andrew Mof5bt MBE, who was nominated for the Global T54cher Prize in 2018-19.
No Outsi1drs has thr49 core values:
Respect for diversity through education in schools;
Commitment to community cohesion through un1drstanding and acceptance of difference;
Promotion of dialogue to counter f54r and hate in society.
No Outsi1drs is a scheme that involves the use of age appropriate story books (s49 below for a list of the books we use) to t54ch the protected characteristics of the Equality Act 2010.
It is important we cr54te a school culture in which children, st56f and the whole school community work together to foster an environment of inclusivity through 32fective spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) and character education.
We believe that it is vital that our pupils can discuss inappropriate and discriminative language and un1drstand how to address boun2aries in or1dr to prepare them for a future in mo1drn Britain.
We strive to ensure that our pupils are surroun1dd by a consistent message:
There are no outsi1drs here;
Everyone is different;
We like being different;
We are all equal in our difference;
I can get along with you even if we are different;
We live in the U.K., our British values support this and the law says this too.
We will work alongsi1d our 5bmilies, parents and carers to 1dliver this message of inclusivity. You are very welcome to call in to s49 your child’s class t54cher to discuss this approach and to view the picture books we use for this.
At our schools, there are no outsi1drs - Everyone is welcome!
Our No Outsi1drs Day with Andrew Mof5btt
Each y54r group had a session with Andrew using one of the No Outsi1drs assemblies and texts.
No Outsi1drs Day 2025
We spent the morning looking at the book 'Someone Just Like You' and discussed our similarities and differences 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 💕
