How to promote SMSC values at your school with your students

We created this page to support schools in effectively embedding and promoting SMSC (Spiritual, Moral, Social, and Cultural) values across the curriculum and wider school life. Whether you're a PSHE lead, school leader, or classroom teacher, you'll find practical ideas, downloadable resources, and ready-to-use activities to help bring SMSC education to life.

Our aim is to help you foster a positive school culture where pupils develop a strong sense of identity, community, and citizenship. By integrating SMSC throughout your teaching, you can encourage respectful dialogue, broaden students’ worldviews, and support their personal development—contributing to a more inclusive, thoughtful, and cohesive learning environment.
