This resource was brought out by the Diocese of Norwich, and although written within a Christian framework, many of the examples are transferable to any school situation, faith or non faith. Certainly worth a read.

Higher order questions- maths for example, what's a perfect number, why? This can be linked to spiritual ideas about the perfection of certain numbers. Art- looking at the spiritual through paintings. What was an artist trying to convey? English- 'Mice and Men' what makes a house a home? Some colleagues have icon on ppts which indicate time for pair talk/post it notes/discussion where they are no RIGHT or WRONG answers just the opportunity to discuss, meditate and simply chew the cud over certain issues. Sometimes a Thunk will help start the conversation.,,

I work in a small Primary school. Each week we all participate in a 4 minute meditation session where we think about questions like: 'What is it like in heaven?' Children can record their ideas on thought bubbles, which get attached to a display board for them to read/share. :-)

Each week we have a theme which is explored in assemblies and tutor time. The themes are linked to the IB Learner profile - lots of crossover with SMSC. Also, we have Enrichment classes once a week for KS3 students and each unit is linked to SMSC. In Year 7, as part of their transition to high school, we have the 8 by 8 challenge where the students have to complete eight challenges before they enter year 8; challenges include raising money for a local charity and taking part in an extra-curricular activity.

Similar to lots of the things already posted plus we do "Challenge Days" across the whole school once per Half Term to address different themes, e.g. E-safety, global citizenship, alcohol & drug awareness, money matters, equality...etc. we also do issue of the week during tutor time weekly and were one of the first secondary schools in the country to become a UNICEF Rights Respecting School. We also hold the investors in children award and involve our students fully in deciding and evaluating programmes through our student council.

We are a Values School. We promote 10 values throughout everything we do, giving our children not only an ethical vocabulary but also a code to which all relationships, learning behaviours and aspirations all adhere. Each Value is a main focus for half a term, being the content of assemblies, PHSE lessons and sometimes P4C. All adults are excellent role models. Our Values are displayed everywhere and tangible in everything we do and say. We have been recognised by the International Values Education Trust as an example of excellent practice and we are a Hub, so if anyone wishes, they can come to us for a Values walk and talk to our children.

The most powerful way to do SMSC is by having all staff live the core values as role models. Students will respond and understand what it means to be good people. If you're doing it because it's important that's enough; if you're doing it for Ofsted they'll notice the school culture/atmosphere the moment they walk in. (That and laugh at anyone who asks if you're responsible for all SMSC in your lessons if you're the Head of RE.

Ensure opportunities for practical application, particularly addressing the inconsistencies in society's responses to different issues. It's one thing teaching kids about it, it's another them applying it beyond school.

In Language lessons there is opportunity to discuss many different issues, as in MFL we teach the medium not the content. Even low level language learners can use simple phrases such as "I agree" "I think that". By using some English together with the target language, it is possible to deal with quite complex issues whilst still learning and using important phrases in another language.
