Our school aims to meet its obligations under the public sector equality duty by having due regard to the need to:
- Eliminate discrimination and other conduct that is prohibited by the Equality Act 2010
- Advance equality of opportunity between people who share a protected characteristic and people who do not share it
- Foster good relations across all characteristics – between people who share a protected characteristic and people who do not share it
The Public Sector Equality Duty requires public bodies to promote equality. The relevant protected characteristics are-
- Age
- Disability,
- Gender reassignment
- Pregnancy and maternity
- Race
- Religion or belief
- Sex
- Sexual orientation
The school has a range of policies which make explicit the school’s long-established commitment to actively promoting equality of opportunity for all.
The main policies or statements that deal with equality of opportunity are:
- British Values
- Accessibility Plan (2023-2027)
- Equality Duty
- SEND policy
- Behaviour Policy
- Anti-bullying policy
- Maternity & Paternity Policies
