Our responsibilities lie within the roles of both employer and educator:

• We are an equal opportunities employer, appointing the most suitable people to our team regardless of gender, ethnicity, faith, sexual orientation, disability or additional need.
• We actively further the continuous professional development of all staff.
• We value, and actively encourage the engagement of all pupils in all aspects of our curriculum, and aim to provide a curriculum which is equally relevant, inspiring and challenging to all pupils
• We closely track the achievement of all pupils to ensure that they have an equal opportunity to succeed, and target intervention groups, classroom support and 1 to 1 support as appropriate.
• We identify whole school patterns of achievement related to key groups within the school and address at a strategic level.
• We encourage all pupils to fully engage with the extended school provision (breakfast club and enrichment programme), directing pupil premium funding to support families in overcoming financial barriers.
• We act swiftly and strongly in response to any incident in which one child unkindly highlights the physical or cultural differences of another. These incidents are extremely rare at our school.

All  members  of  the  School  Community  are  involved  in developing,  implementing  and monitoring the equalities policy and practice.
