Question 1 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
A place of worship holds an open day and invites neighbours of all faiths and none to look around, ask questions and share refreshments. Which value does the open day best promote?
Open days like this build tolerance: learning about other people's faiths, and welcoming people who do not share them, is part of life in a diverse society.
Question 2 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
Since retiring, Mrs Ahmed collects her grandchildren from school each day and looks after them until their parents finish work. Which responsibility of people living in the UK is she fulfilling?
Looking after yourself and your family is one of the stated responsibilities of people living in the UK — and that includes helping to care for children and other relatives within the family.
Question 3 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
Ravi receives a parking fine that he believes was issued unfairly. Which course of action fits best with British values?
People are free to challenge decisions they believe are wrong — but through the proper channels. Using the appeals process, and accepting the outcome, respects the rule of law.
Question 4 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
Sana attends a public meeting of her local council to hear councillors debate plans for a new housing development, and she asks a question during the public session. Which principle is she taking part in?
Local council meetings are generally open to the public. Attending, listening and asking questions is a practical way of participating in community life and in local democracy.
Question 5 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
At a monthly repair café in a village hall, volunteers help neighbours mend broken bikes, toasters and clothes instead of throwing them away. Which pair of responsibilities does this best show?
A repair café combines two responsibilities of people living in the UK: helping people in your community, and looking after the environment by repairing things rather than wasting them.
Question 6 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
Offensive graffiti targeting a religious group appears on a community centre wall. Local residents report it to the police and turn up the next morning to help clean it off. Which statement does their response best reflect?
Targeting people because of their religion is intolerance, and intolerance has no place in British society. Reporting the graffiti and standing together against it reflects tolerance and community life.
Question 7 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
A library runs a free conversation club where new residents can practise English with local volunteers over a cup of tea. Which principle does joining in with the club best show?
Clubs and groups like this are part of community life: new residents meet people, practise the language and build local connections, while volunteers give their time to the community.
Question 8 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
A school trip has fewer places than the number of pupils who want to go, so the school draws names from a hat to allocate the places. Which value does this method best show?
When something cannot be given to everyone, a fair method such as a draw gives every pupil an equal chance, instead of favouring some pupils over others.
Question 9 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
Which of these rights is protected by the Human Rights Act 1998?
The Human Rights Act protects a set of rights drawn from the European Convention on Human Rights, including the right to marry and found a family, the right to a fair trial and respect for private and family life.
Question 10 · Chapter 1: Values & Principles
A small business is advertising an ordinary warehouse job. The advert says that only British nationals may apply, although the work could be done by anyone who is legally allowed to work in the UK. Which statement is correct?
Nationality is part of race under equality law, so turning applicants away because of their nationality is unlawful discrimination. Nationality cannot be used to exclude people from an ordinary job in this way.
