Remembrance Day 2023
The children from Tudor CE Primary School represented the children of Sudbury, as we always do, in the remembrance day wreath laying ceremony.
The children did a great job speaking with the veterans and laying our wreath.
Tudor CE Primary School remembrered and are grateful for the freedoms we share, especially at such a time as this in our world.
Our new entrance display.
This is our new display in our entrance. Every child has contributed a unique fish.
The display is based on the book 'Only One You'.
The message of the book is that there is 'Only One You', so go out and make the workd a better place.
The values we learn about in assembly and lessons are included in the display. All of these values lived out will help to transform our world and make it a better place.

British Values and Christian Values at Tudor CE Primary School.
British Values
The Government set out this definition of British values in the 2011 Prevent Strategy, and these values were reiterated in 2014. “to create and enforce a clear and rigorous expectation on all schools to promote the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs.”
This was not something new at Tudor Church of England Primary School. British values are promoted in so much of what we do, not least during our school assemblies, Religious Education and Personal, Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning. We have thought carefully about how British Values and Christian values are entwined.
The term ‘British values’ might be slightly misleading in that these values are integral to so many countries throughout the world – they differ in no way from the values of most western European countries, for example.
Being part of Britain
As a school, we value and celebrate the diverse heritages of everybody at Tudor. Alongside this, we value and celebrate being part of Britain. In general terms, this means that we celebrate traditions, such as customs in the course of the year; for example, our Autumn celebration about the harvest & bonfire night, Easter egg hunting and our Summer Farmers Market and of course our Christmas celebrations! We also value and celebrate national, charity and sporting events such as Children In Need, Red Nose Day and the WW1 Centenary. The children take great pleasure in helping our local food bank with food donations and contributing to the annual shoe box appeal as well as where possible raising money for a wide range of charities.
Further, children learn about being part of Britain from different specific perspectives. We ensure that the children have a better understanding of what Britain is, learning more about:
- its capital cities and counties, its rivers and mountains
- the local area, specifically the farming background of the village and the river
- how ‘Great Britain’ differs from ‘England’ and ‘the United Kingdom’ where Britain is in relation to the rest of Europe and other countries in the world
- British history, Monarchs, rulers and significant events that defined society
