Equality Duty

Introduction
The Equality Act 2010 identifies seven ‘protected characteristics’ that it is unlawful to discriminate against by treating someone to whom one or more of the characteristics apply less favourably. They are:
  1. Sex
  2. Race
  3. Disability
  4. Religion or belief
  5. Sexual orientation
  6. Gender reassignment
  7. Pregnancy or maternity
The Public Sector Equality Duty requires public bodies to have due regard to the need to:
  • Eliminate discrimination and other conduct that is prohibited by the Act.
  • 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.
when carrying out their activities.
The school’s vision statement refers inclusively to allowing our pupils to 'Believe in themselves and to put their print on the world by daring to be different.'

Our school is committed to equal opportunities and as such we challenge prejudice and inequality in all its forms.  We will continue to build on good practice through our Public Sector Equality Duty.​
