Ethos

Beit Shvidler Primary School is an Orthodox Jewish primary school which promotes a strong commitment to Orthodox Jewish practice, Torah values, the love of Israel and educational excellence.

The children are taught to be proud and thankful to be able to benefit from the British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and respect for people of different faiths and beliefs. We explain that it is incumbent upon us to learn, develop and demonstrate skills and attitudes that enable us to contribute positively to life in modern Britain, but also that this outlook is clearly mandated in the Torah.
