Equality Objectives

Our Equality Objectives for 2024/25 are:

To improve outcomes for all students including those with protected characteristics, so that they make progress at least in line with expectations based on their prior attainment and ability.
To continue to provide a school environment that welcomes, protects, and respects diverse people which enables all students, including those in groups with protected characteristics, to participate in the wider school community and make a positive contribution to school life.
To continue to close the gaps in attainment and achievement between students and all groups of students especially boys and girls, disadvantaged students, students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, Looked After Children, and students from different heritage groups e.g. Black Caribbean students.
To promote mental health awareness, challenge stigma, to develop strategies and opportunities to develop staff and pupil wellbeing.
To challenge stereotypes and barriers that may deny opportunities to students through high quality teaching, enrichment opportunities and careers guidance.
