Equality Statement
  • We acknowledge and welcome diversity among children, families, staff & visitors.
  • We do not discriminate against anyone, staff, children or families, on the grounds of their sex, race, age, colour, religion, nationality, ethnic, national origins or physical or mental abilities.
  • We promote the principles of fairness and justice for all through the education that we provide.
  • We try to ensure that all children have equal access to the full range of educational opportunities provided by the School.
  • We are opposed to all forms of racism and xenophobia, including those forms that are directed towards religious groups and communities.
  • We respect the religious beliefs and practices of all staff, children, parents and carers and comply with all reasonable requests relating to religious observance and practice.
  • We ensure that all recruitment, employment, promotion and training systems are fair to all, and provide opportunities for everyone to achieve.
  • We will make reasonable adjustments, as required, in order to: increase access to the curriculum; improve access to the building; and improve delivery of information.
We feel that it is important:
  • To help pupils develop lively and enquiring minds, with the ability to argue rationally and apply themselves to tasks and physical skills.
  • To help children to acquire knowledge and skills relevant to adult life and employment in a fast, changing world.
  • To instil respect for religious, moral values and tolerances of different races, religions and ways of life.
  • To help children to understand the world in which they live and the interdependence of individuals, groups and nations.
