Learning and Teaching British Values

  • 441 Accesses

Abstract

This chapter introduces background information about schools, teachers and students increasingly being required to develop knowledge and understanding of Britishness and Fundamental British Values (FBV). Since 2007, politicians have offered hegemonic ideas about the meanings of Britishness and called upon the teaching and learning of Britishness as necessary for social cohesion. This endorsement of national identity has in recent years evolved into the Fundamental British Values (FBV) duty where schools have now been placed in a position where they must actively promote FBV. This chapter also examines how identity, national identity and nation are defined in the literature, as well as the intersections of multicultural and White Britishness.
