Equality and equal opportunity in our school
Equal Opportunities
At Earlham Primary School, all children have the right to equal opportunities in all aspects of school life regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, religion or any other factor. We actively oppose discrimination and stereotyping of all kinds and aim for all our children to develop a sense of respect for others.
Equalities Objectives
It is against the law to discriminate against anyone because of:
- age
- being or becoming a transsexual person
- being married or in a civil partnership
- being pregnant or on maternity leave
- disability
- race including colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin
- religion, belief or lack of religion/belief
- sex
- sexual orientation
These are called ‘protected characteristics’.
The Eko Trust Equalities Policy can be found here.
Earlham's equality objectives for 2019/20 are:
- To reduce prejudice and increase understanding of equality through direct teaching across the curriculum.
- To ensure new arrivals, who are new to English, make swift progress in acquiring English, ensuring parental engagement supports this.
- To ensure that children with Social Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) are supported to access their learning by using a variety of approaches including Thrive.
